What Is Religion?
Religion
A God gift
A message from creator
On the name of his creation.
But it seems to me
A permit on the name of God
To exploit others
Who has no faith in their preaching,
To control them
Who has their different method
In worshipping,
Why I think that
Over the centuries
My ancestors
Are divided into different castes?
Raped and killed innocently,
Were burnt alive
Their babies are on sale,
Because they were banned
By a religion on the name of God
Not to get education
To stop their progress
Economically, physically and mentally,
Islam ruled over them
Thousand years
But failed to introduce a policy
Of an equal opportunity,
Christian ruled over them
for hundred years,
Failed to introduce a legislation
To remove injustice of untouchability,
To establish fare justice system
to remove their down trodden status,
But the religion believer belief that
God only has some special for them
Because they hear his message
So they deserve to control them
They are not the part of their preaching
As Hindu treated Dalits
Over the centuries
But no religion open their mouth
To condemn that
God has no free gift
Or special service for anybody
as they think,
Caste is their God Gift,
If we all are brothers and sisters
Then
Why we has such difference?
