Religion, a force for good they say. Medieval curds and whey. A mixture of promises threats and worse, Blight on the world this ancient curse. Comfort can be drawn in times of woe, Of this I'm certain and indeed I know. If only the good that does exist, Had not been twisted to misfit. Vicars, Bishop's shepherd and flock, Have turned mankind into a fearing lot. To say that the Lord watches all, Seems to make no sense at all. Sleeping, waking at all times, A foot out of place an eternal crime. And whilst I see a place for it, I can't accept this hallowed writ. Hitchens, Russell, Dawkins and Harris Spinoza, Lucretius could of stopped the damage, Now done it can never be repaired, A shame as mankind could of been spared.
