The Rewards of Being An Atheist

It will certainly raise the eyebrows of believers May attract righteous indignation of the devout An unsympathetic reaction from the indifferent But only a few blessed admire its vast benefit. Free from the bindings of daily rituals any longer Enough time to chase cherished pursuits at leisure Take delight in reading relaxingly the daily paper And eat breakfast in peace relishing its flavor. No more chanting and telling the beads of rosary Free from botheration of visiting divine sanctuary With no burden of reading the holy texts regularly One can spend enough time on interests leisurely. Trappings by rituals and the likes surely do taper Those come in the way of our engagements dear Not remaining tied to a stance is a great pleasure Help breathe a whiff of air with untroubled care. The unrelenting knots of superstition do not bind And the movements of planets do fail to pound The effervescence of self with reasons unsound This is the reward of being an atheist; unbound.
