† Re: Sex, Marriage, & Fairytales
You call yourself a poet?
Let us engage in spoken word warfare.
I’ll be the armageddon in physical manifestation,
you’ll be the soldier unarmed, defended only by your skin
and your salvation from sin.
Here’s a bullet from my weapon of mass destruction,
can your religion put off your damnation
when the projectile pierces your skin?
Will your deity accept your penance to free you from sin?
Fools, fools all around us.
Fools disguised as good samaritans, fools that act
as if their words were truth,
and all else are lies
but when your words are stagnant and redundant,
who would believe your amateur rhymes?
Only those who bathe in stupidity
would state that there is only one solution.
Don’t you realize it yet, pseudo-poet?
We, as humans, hold the key to our very salvation.
You say love is a fairytale and we all worship sex,
but your rhymes ain’t complex, they just lack context
because religion may be a fairytale to some.
Yet you deny them the freedom of choice,
you deny them of their voice
so here’s our united shout from the whispers you silenced.
Here’s the final blow
that will send you to your proposed maker.
If his existence is real,
then will he guard your idiotic endeavors?
Armorless warrior, you are but a fool in the eyes of god.
Striving to fight in a nonexistent crusade,
making those in limbo into disbelievers.
We are god. We are religion. We are the church,
we command our own legions.
We need not no book, we need not no deity.
We are feared by all, we are
humanity.
† I hate religion, but love Jesus
I think that slam poetry is so fucking stupid. To the writer/performer, please tell me what the fucking difference is. He stated that he loves the church, the bible and believes in sin. Do those not constitute as aspects of religion? I guess it just goes to show how stupid people really are. You can’t pick and choose what you want to keep sacred in a religion. You can’t blow off all the negativity in the teachings and simply highlight that which makes Christianity seem higher than other religion.
Jesus is a religion. Jesus is your religion. You can’t hate religion, or else you’d hate every aspect of it. I know that I may be being biased here since I am an agnostic, but people who praise him are being ignorant and blind. I know he meant well, but his delivery and his choice in wording was pathetic at best.
Go ahead. Hate me.
† Ungodly Anti-Rhyme
Fairytales aren’t true, so tell me why
the words of prophets and saints are recited and used
as a tool to brainwash those who suffer from weak minds.
Mindless zombies littering ungodly wastelands,
infecting those liberated from religion with words of toxic.
Speaking in tongues that defy their own teachings,
equipped with malignant scriptures made specifically for breaching
the nonbeliever’s defense mechanism.
Forbidding true love and calling it a sin,
yet comitting crimes of blasphemy and still they are granted
a spot in their crimson heaven.
Ungodly creatures become servants of an imaginary deity,
killing all the rest with ignorance,
slaughtering their innocence with angelic nonsense.
Who’s to say that their tome of unrelenting truth
holds more value than a fairytale book?
Who’s to say that princesses and dragons are less credible
than a water-treading deity?
Here is my ungodly rhyme that seldom rhymes at all,
here are my words, waiting silently for this holy war
to finally fall.
I love The DaVinci Code. I fell in love with the book and all its conspiracy theories, and I love the film just as much. It really gets you thinking about Christianity and all that, but most of all, I like how both medias try to deceive the reader into thinking that the information it presents are facts. Not once does the author state that the entire novel is fiction, but leaves it up to the reader to speculate the truth.
The Christians and the Catholics… a majority of them brand both the film and the novel as a travesty, blasphemous in every way. But I see it as another perspective of Christianity. Another theory that can never be proven nor disproved.
The bible can be proven right or wrong just as much as Dan Brown’s work. But the beauty in this is that it will never be possible to find the truth. At least, not in facts.
