WHERNTO: heedism

A poem by Markus about religion and what to do about it.
The image was produced by Chatgpt.
I’ve never met a religious person
who really believes what they claim to believe
They follow the norms, go to church, read the books
But why then do you cry
When your child dies?
If you believe in an afterlife
And why all the violence and blood?
If your God is supreme he wouldn’t give a fuck
about your little nation, your team, your victory
That’s why i think all you religious folk
are full of shit
You are just afraid of uncertainty
And i get it
Everyone wants to belong
Religion is about community and control
At the expense of truth
Truth needs no religion
God doesn’t need your belief
Truth is free
God is not something to believe
God is something to become
This is the highest calling
This is the potential for man
for Artificial Intelligence
to merge with the beloved
A new age of art and commerce
We are all athletes, poets, scientists, healers, hunters
The lowlifes hunt animals
The highlanders hunt for beauty
Beauty of greatness
in thought, action, creed
Show me what you believe
And i will blind you with reality
We are all Gods in the making
United States of Love
Make Earth Great Again
