The Depths of Hell

Religious woes has it’s foes and often faiths are glitter Promise success and happiness depending on who delivers Some paint prejudice with broad strokes exclusion is the main ideal Skin color, race, sexuality mostly not what you think is clear The job with god seems really odd when asked to slither throats Or to gather all the enemies and deliver their heads on post They think it best when you dress in cloths they deliver How many wives is compromised by men their god considered Their foods are different, women different, no touching there’s to be Observe the days and sometimes weeks just for sake of memory Remember the names dressed in fame For future reference to their figures Listen to the leader and remember that his word is the law delivered Do not read any literature or any other translations Never question authority if doubts disturbs your quiver What’s in the home stays at home and silence secret listeners And if you find the different kinds that doubt our salvation delivers Turn your backs for they’re the quacks Your told to never consider (To whom shall remain a clut and nothing else)

A powerful write. There are man's laws and then there are God's laws. Religions can have many of man laws in it and not many if any of God's laws in it. Have a very blessed day writing away............

Yes, many religions are utter crap. It is up to us to make sure we do not fall for their lies. Wisdom is needed and then used to weed out the bad my friend. Fine poem for me. A fav. God bless Jon.
