Literature Text

Wars are waged and people die
All in the name of the blue skies
When all are weeping as the battle ends
We find that we’re back where we began

Out of pride for God we create regrets
Our hate is all that hate begets
What’s so good about being the same?
Or worshipping something that causes pain?

There is not enough religion for tolerance
But enough for hurt and for lives to be spent?
Even in kids when their parents do tell
That their neighbors are gay and are headed for Hell

Diversity’s supposed to be a virtue
But other religions have caused war, too
Dictatorship-like priests and a book that lies
All under their merciful, good God’s eyes

I’ll never bow down and lose myself
Or donate to someone who doesn’t need wealth
I won’t peruse a text that’s making so many blind
Or my soul to deception will I ever bind

When great thinkers are shunned by the sheep
Because they have knowledge that the church won’t keep
They’re left, instead, to be viewed as snakes
Not revered for relieving hunger no one wants slaked

I think it’s better to just live and let lie
The best that you can with no worry of the skies
If you don’t feel that you can give
Your life to yourself it’s not yours to live…
WARNING!: I don't want to hear about how "God loves everyone" or "you're going to Hell". I don't fucking care. I'm going to Heaven. I'm a good person. Don't feed me that bullshit, your comment will be deleted. I hate narrow-minded people. Everyone is allowed their own Gothdamn oppinion.

This is a compilation of many, but not all, of the reasons that contribute to my non-religiousnessness.
