Resetting It Straight

Man, then Woman

Our Father, which art in heaven,
   is male we perceive,
He first created Adam,
   then He created Eve.

Several thousand years later,
   science proved Genesis is justified,
by showing Adam is of 'X' and of 'Y',
   but for Eve, the 'Y' chromosome is denied.

"Do the math", we hear the godless say,
   But when we do, we find each and every way,
X+X is not equal to X+Y each and every day.

Is it not time to change our focus away from the confused?
  They are so filled with lies, and promote an angry ruse.
Over the years, the quality of life they did not improve.
  But of family, of life, of God... they most certainly did abuse.
