Religion

Means by which we search for 
divinity.

In its name we've wrought 
confusions.
Brought wars, unjustified 
deaths and destruction.
Something we believe to be 
perfect shouldn't cause
Mankind chaos. Is it a divine 
cause?
In my religion we say, there's 
one way, things are vanity.

Means by which we segregate.

Darwinistic we be, hiding 
behind it for divisions.
With different beliefs we're still 
humans. Why adhere to 
segregation?
Some I assume have mortal 
influences without godly 
beating pause.
Religion sprout out any & 
every where, we need to pause.
In my religion we say, we fell 
from Grace, albeit.

Means by which we pride 
ourselves.

In its name we're righteous, 
judging peoples' actions.
Atheists have religion, theirs 
has no godly subscription. (lol)
Pride? No human is perfect 
even if your religion is, we're 
masters of imperfections.
Mankind unite, religion isn't 
weapon of mass destruction.
In my religion we say, we 
should love others as 
ourselves.

Yes my friend, through history, religion has a lot to answer for, even our great Lord rebuked religious leaders in his time, yes we all have fallen from grace, but true faith is GOD's gift, without the gift there is no faith, and sadly many religions today just want bottoms on pews and only tickle their congregation with what they want to hear, some even hypocritical , great write blessings sueellen
