Religion: I can't help but question...

As I sit with my hands folded and head bowed,

I cannot help but question the relevance of it all,

The hymns, the verses, this language of god,

Bloodied bodies and brandished swords,

Blind faith in the unseen,love for humanity a lost cause,

Dictated way of life,reason and logic a blasphemous thought,

A mirage of hope, eyes shut to reality,

Trust placed on a stone, the lust for immortality

An escape plan from miseries anguish and pain,

An attempt to evade life, ultimately lost in vain,

Following another's preaching, killing your inner call,

I cannot help but question the relevance of it all....
