Aversion

I cannot deny onset of aversion whenever I observe religious dogma at play why do we brandish our gods attempting to save ‘sinners’ making it our life mission I do find it annoying belief is in mind realisation is in heart we can memorise scriptures or transform, becoming the light

Or we can just grab a Hershey bar and take a break. I enjoyed how you opened up this subject I tend to think for myself.

true, yet in India at least I see forced religious conversions, riots, inflammatory speeches and more subtly, brainwashing, thrusting belief systems onto others … I find it unacceptable.

I see you've set yourself up as some sort of spiritual guru, the very thing you claim to detest you have become. By spreading your own version of "salvation" via your poetry or by other means you are no different than any other zealot. I've read enough of your poems to understand that for you, it has become your "life's mission." Personally, I have no problem with it. My mission is to continue to spread the good news of the kingdom of God to humble, honest, hungry hearts - Matthew 24:14

an unprovoked attack! no worries. it happens in case of those deep rooted in religious fundamentalism. reflect dear Tom, which god from which religion owns the sun, the moon, the breeze, our breath, our heartbeat?
