this nucleus of sweet christian craziness
sought after from 1096 onwards
with 60,000 strong leading the 
kill-everyone-in-its-path-if-they-don’t-worship-the-same-character-of-fiction-that-we-do
campaign
stands tall within the canon of idiotic reasons that
humans have killed each other.

one has to wonder that if the devious concoctors of
the work of fiction known as the 
new testament
had penned “mr. christ’s” death somewhere a little less sweltering 
than the dry heat of jerusalem---
if the whole story would have been different.

think about it
what if the character of christ had been written about in the context of 
siberia or perhaps the nether-regions of antartica?
certainly the freezing cold may have calmed down the
fanaticism to
follow?

those who will tell us that these lands had not even been 
“discovered” yet
so they wouldn’t have suited the writer’s of said work of fiction---
well, i suppose that they walk around everyday, somehow, 
on one leg---
because the other leg, bent upward, 
always has the extended foot
shoved in the mouth of said believer.  

an estimated 30,000 people were killed in the first crusade
alone---
muslims
jews
& even other christians,
died 
because people who read a book
told the majority of people who couldn’t even read that book,
that there was sufficient reason to take up arms & go
marauding over water & land
to kill others
because they did not abide by the fiction which this book
“delivered.”

it is now 2011
& have the crusades stopped?

just how “holy” is this jerusalem?

just because it is the centerpiece of 3 cults of
fiction,
does not make it anymore significant a land mass
than that of
st. petersburg,
where a much 
much
much
better writer
wrote the brothers karamazov.

but have no fear,
these itty-bitty revelations will not keep us brilliant apes
from continuing to club each other over the heads
until our brains splash out in the blessed
desert.

keep beating, keep thumping those clubs now,
until you get your precious little
armageddon.
