Opaqueness of Faith

They've been talking about the end times
since the beginning of time.
The will of fear is to keep us in line.
Will I be cherry-picked for heaven
or tossed to the pigsty.

I have an opaque flavor of faith.
Never fully believing in divine things. 
That I've never really felt or seen.
So, I'll probably be going down fast.
When all the carnage and $hit hits the fan.
but for now, I'm riding dorsal fin waves. 
Lighting the fuses and having a blast.

Great way to address this topic. It's difficult to have faith. I depend on things I hear about such as NDEs . The stories are amazing and give me hope of a better world, especially hearing of people blind since birth whose spirits left their bodies during surgeries and upon waking they can describe things they saw while their spirit hovered above their unconscious bodies or colors they saw on the other side
