Best Skeptic Poems


The Skeptic
So, what’s up with Noah?
He’s building an ark,
From early each morning,
‘Till long after dark.

He’s preaching that there
Will be judgment someday,
And so he just works,
While the rest of us play.

It’s really quite foolish,
This nonsense that God
Will destroy the whole world;
His mind’s in a fog.

For nothing has...

The Skeptic Asks For Proof
The skeptic says, prove it and I'll believe,
prove God is real and I'll believe--but,
I answer, how can I prove the reality
of a Being that is beyond the lines of
space and time, life and death: eternal....

How can I even grasp the idea of God,
when I can...

The Skeptic
This sorrow is hollow in truth I am borrowed
Dont ever recall me with witness I'll follow
With constance I'll call out, the heavens in echoes
Oh save me I'm falling the broken shall honour
Their master dont bother redeem us they call out
It's painful to speak when this...

The Skeptic
Religion is a separator,
not a lifesaver. 

Man made it in his mind.

Take a lesson in history,
maybe you’ll see. 
I do not believe
that God is right for me.

Neither the Devil nor Jesus,
do I believe to exist.

Go spread the word of your deity
and end up at the...

The Skeptic
I do believe the world is flat,
I'm confident it's so.
Many adhere to the thought of a sphere,
ridiculous! I say no!
-For if this was an Earth with curves,
a ball, rounded and circular,
we'd fall off that globe,
but it's flat, so we don't,
of this, I'm certain, for sure!

I...

Moon Landing Skeptic
I'm no rocket scientist
but found out today,
its been 47 years ago
the 3 amigos went away,
supposedly landing in
their lunar module
aka Apollo 11,
getting close as they could
almost touching Heaven,
after all their fanfare
and all their boasts,
there is a lot of
evidence they couldn't
have or they would've
been toast,
so I guess...

The Skeptic Part 2
Perpertual this story the breakdown of Sally
The year it was only the start of a winter
The irony offers a semblance of virtue
Oh creatures of man why do they always hurt you
The thickness of skin can be broken by whispers
The scars that they set are the...

The Doubter, the Skeptic, the Believer
The doubter finds a way of not believing
Convinced they've seen the worst in man
For how can there be, one higher than me
When we've seen the world's pain and misery

They tend to focus on the sadness and the narrow
Hate to live life by anothers rule
You can't...

So you don't like my poetry?
You think it's for the birds?
Well that's ok 'cause I don't like birds
on my car they leave their turds....

Long In The Tooth Skeptic,...
Nonetheless Rooted With Gumption

Implicit virtue of humankind
figuratively locked horns with vice,
yet time and again this mortal celibate,
(not by choice) sexagenarian thrice

Captain Skeptic Kill Joy At Your Service If You Will
Show me a miracle
Or
Magic trick

And all i can think is how was it done

That is the level of sceptic i have become

With every believer comes a sceptic

Enter front and left Captain Sceptic

Sporting miracle,
Betting scandal

Predict the future,
Calculate the odds algorithm

Magic trick,
Smoke and mirrors slight of hand

If...

While Skeptic Attempts To Comprehend the Legacy of Jonathan Edwards
Alternately titled: Get out of my head mister chatterbox!

While inside me noggin legions
of monstrous demons abhor
protest being force fed
arcane and obscure
assaying into religious dogma
hence mind chatter goes full bore
thus crafting poem quite a difficult chore,
one lightweight bag of bones
basketcase weave gotta deplore,

nevertheless mine tincup rattled

Nonbeliever
Nonbeliever
by Michael R. Burch writing as Kim Cherub

She smiled a thin-lipped smile
(What do men know of love?)
then rolled her eyes toward heaven
(Or that Chauvinist above?)....

Premium Member Crack Open Your Mind
No other planets are
Inhabited, you say;
What proof, have you of this?
You could ask me the same; 
It’s egotistical.
Do you really believe?

Have you been to each
And every planet?
How did you get there?
Perhaps a rocket?
Or your own shuttle?

Pompous ego!
The fool assumes
All without proof
But open minds,

Say maybe…
Possible…
Yes perhaps…

Open
