Apologists Crack Me Up

Apologists Are Too Funny

Apologists have been saying for 2000 years,
Jesus will return, you can dry your tears.
But they have always been making this claim,
About the truth of Christianity’s fame.
They always fabricate a ridiculous excuse,
That’s always been considered abstruse.

But Jesus said that some wouldn’t die,
Before he returns from his home in the sky.
He was wrong and no one cares,
That it didn’t happen and their heirs,
Just keep on believing no matter the year.
These foolish souls have so much fear,
That they might be wrong and their god is a hoax.
So they keep on believing, stupid folks.

So for millennia, there’s little change,
When they offer their answers, they are unchanged.

But they’re always quick to tell you you’re wrong.
That their beliefs will always be strong.
They cannot debate and accept the fact,
And refuse to accept the failed contract.
If any other religion claimed the same,
They would say it is false and lame.
Fools and obnoxious they always become.
A waste of time, they’re just plain dumb.

Dear LR, A belated congratulations on your POTD. I wasn't near a computer yesterday and you present a very different perspective. I am not here to preach but as a Christian I know Christ loved all. One will know a "true" Christian by their love. Blessings to you dear poet.

Being dumb and obnoxious is not exclusive to believers. You don’t have to look very far for evidence of that.

BRAVO on your POTD, Your poem made me laugh out loud - especially the final verse and i'm adding it to my faves for so many reasons . I am a non believer and get fed of bigots' causing issues in chat, then braying like a donkey for peace and ramming bible quotes down people's throat. hugs jan

We know who the rabid dingo is, he never ceases to want to attack. All can see the mean ones by their vile comments.

You ladies are popular! The dingo just has a little man’s complex. A little bitty dingy on the dingo.

I don't mind being called a mean girl, Jan. I find it endearing.

Congratulations on POTD! One more perspective LR, in America Christianity is used for whatever the agenda. The North preached slavery as evil, the South preached slavery was proper & just, both making references to the Bible. Then “Kill a commie for Christ” sounded off. I get the excuses & religious crutches. A non-believer said in her poem, she wanted to believe, as she cried, didn’t know how to. The cry itself is Christianity, she had the answer within. For some it’s real. Traditionally Catholic families had the image of the bleeding-heart representing Christ’s empathy and compassion for suffering of humanity. Some believe that it’s not Jesus but His energy that returns. Enjoy your day!

Some believe because they believe. Some believe because they have Seen or Been in a Miracle. I know many.... God Bless you as you write away.....................

Don't dam them all. Some actually attempt to be good people and help others. Some use religion to elevate themselves. Europeans were forced to give up paganism, though it follows science more close than Christianity. There is also Asian religions which appear to have scientific base in their Einsteinian concepts of time. Congratulations on POTD.

Well, as a “dumb obnoxious” Christian the one redeeming feature of your condemnation is at least there was no mention of trannies. For that I congratulate you. Wouldn’t want to be standing next to you in a thunderstorm.

An unapologetic POTD about apologists, who’d of thought it, all religions are big business the world over, and make no apologies for raking in the cash on the back of it, the small man in the street is not dumb, just open to cult scammers that prey on their vulnerability, nonetheless some genuine souls get great comfort from faith, I certainly wouldn’t deny them that, even though I’m agnostic, congratulations LR on POTD, it will definitely have some poets (cracking up) on PS today, cheers David

Oh my, my! If I may say so, scriptures across all religions are valid but mental interpretations are wrong. For example, eternal life pertains to soul or Self, not organic form, Jesus returning is actually Christ consciousness awakening in all hearts. Yes, the truth is out there is we explore in depth, God bless. Congratulations on POTD, Waldman
