Winged Warrior Poet Rhyme

Will the Real Religion Please Stand Up

Does philosophy apply when we ask the question why
In man's querulous quest to do away with scriptural sin
The ceremonial Cardinals preach but do not reach
For the worshipful wolves sovereign in their sheepskin

The unholy alliance in their delinquent defiance
Of benediction blinds that subdue the system
Regulated religion we are under submission
Maculate man in search of a willful wisdom

As Love easily escapes with draconian drapes
We are tentatively trapped in the vastness voids
Secluded spirituality with its maniacal morality
Sequestered souls like deceived dormant droids

Time to abruptly awake and schismatically  shake
And let the Spirit of Love take cohesive control
For within man there is a paradisiacal plan
To aesthetically achieve their gradual godly goal.

Rhoda Tripp December 1, 2017 at 10:13 PM Wow...Heck yes. Similar theme as mine. Universal love and acceptance should be a religion, rather than the dredges of dogma. Great write, Winged.

John Hamilton October 2, 2017 at 10:26 AM Well said WW and needs to be said, so many believe because they were born into a religion, better to do a personal search for truth and then decide.

Demetrios Trifiatis July 18, 2017 at 1:59 PM Religion from the Latin , "Religare"= to unite! To unite Man with God! There is a main difference between religion and philosophy = "Love of Wisdom" Philosophy being deductive searches for the truth and reaches a conclusion while religion been inductive starts from the conclusion and presents the truth as a "dogma" something you accept it or refuse it! Man could never know the truth so either he believes it to be this or that or he doesn't! See Kant! You have opened an endless theme. Well presented my dear friend, WW! Good luck!
