Title: The work of some higher being?
Post by: Jeremy on April 08, 2010, 05:54:17 PM
We need each other not a god*

So this is the work of some higher being,
I'm not all impressed with what I'm seeing.
A beautiful universe at a distance,
but explain it to me its existence.
According to you, it's the work of some god.
But this assumption is nothing but fraud.
No love put in it, no matter what the creators claim.
Excuses for his actions, how lame.
But you buy it all the same.
People chasing love,
Through impossible odds,
People worshipping unknowable gods.
The majority of the world is lost,
Even those who religion they've found.
They continue, reaching for truth across miles,
In hopes for love, without a single audible word,
From this alleged to be above.
Where will it lead? When all we need,
Is two people beliving in love,
Without imaginary support,
From a lie up above, we need not a god,
Just another human-being,
To give life meaning.
For one another is truly all we have.

*I do not capitalize the word "god"; the reason is that in this case I am talking about members of a general class or category. Specifically members of a group which gets the label 'gods' because people have, at one time or another, worshipped its members as "gods". Any time we are referring to the fact that some being or alleged being is a member of this class, it is grammatically appropriate to use a lowercase 'g'; just as it would be inappropriate to talk about Apples or Cats.

I think it's catchy but I think it's kind of a downer for me because I'm Christian-Catholic...

Yes, but it's just expressing my opinion. No intention of offending anyone.

I know it wasn't meant to do that, it's just for a certain audience though.

Haha, good luck with that.

"Excuses for his actions, how lame.

That was my favorite part, personally.
