The Church of Woke
The Christians call it dogma,
but the left calls it P.C.,
the word ‘problematic’ is
how the left spells ‘heresy.’
The Christians called them ‘heathen,’
the left likes to say ‘fascist,’
unless you get them really mad,
then it’s ‘white supremacist.’
The Christians call it ‘penance,’
but the left will make you beg,
even if you apologize
they hold it over your head.
The Christians preach forgiveness,
but the left has no such thing,
though they’ll let you diddle children
if power to them you bring.
The Christians have their churches,
and the left has colleges,
where people are herded in,
and questionable things are said.
The Christians have their reverends,
the left has their professors,
resist their ideology
and you’re damned with a low score.
The Christians had inquisitions,
put innocents in their graves,
the left had socialism,
one hundred million people slain.
The Christians had holy wars,
the left riots in the streets,
searching out unbelievers
who they mercilessly beat.
Christians excommunicate,
but the left will cancel you,
ban you from the internet
and then get you fired too.
The Christians believe that Heaven
awaits in the afterlife,
the left wants a utopia,
and will kill to ‘build it right.’
The Christians believe in truth,
the left says it’s ‘relative,’
which means if it brings power
they will justify what is said.
The Christians believe in God,
but the left believes in man,
which means their fickle feelings
determine who will be damned.
The Christians have their issues,
and covered for some bad folks,
but I’ll still take them any day
over the vile Church of Woke.
