In The Name of GodA Poem by FlowWarning if you are easily offended by freedom of speech then this poem is not for you!
What ever happened to separation of church and state? Since when did the church become a lobbyist group? I feel like every religion is not only trying to tell me how to live my life but now they are trying to make me live my life their way by influencing our national laws I never remember Jesus, or Jacob or Adam or Moses going to the senate to get people to pray or tithe or serve God in anyway no it has always been our personal choice I remember those religious pro-life people blocking doctors’ offices who provided abortions to mothers who wanted it and a few of them even resorted to violence to prevent someone from making their personal decision to abort their pregnancy one man even killed the doctor he said, he did it in the name of God…. in the name of God…. My God what God does he serve? and if abortion is murder then what he did is what? Divine Right? is that how a Christian leads by the sword instead of by love? I have made new friends with people who were a part of organized religions and when they read one of my erotic flows they called me lost a sinner and the devil they didn’t know s**t about me to judge me after reading one poem that I wrote and they damned my soul to hell for eternity? I thought the good book said that only God can Judge us and no man knows another man’s heart so why do people assume they can tell you that you’re going to hell? I feel like religion in America is just a safe haven for people to put on their good clothes and fake faces so they can pretend to be pure for one day out of the week even though the other six days they are doing drugs, having ungodly sex raping, lying, cheating, stealing and even killing just like anyone else who lives in this world for we all are filthy rags In God’s eyes it takes a thief to catch a thief what you see in another is also in you or you wouldn’t see it in the first place calling someone a sinner makes you a sinner point one finger at me and your other four fingers are pointed at you see truth be told organized religion is the problem because the true church of God lives in us not in the bricks and stones not in the wood and collection plates not in the pastor or minister and damn sure not the pope if you ever doubt just follow the money if you go to church watch that collection plate go around and around And around and around And around one more time watch the cars and fancy clothes everyone has then think…. if you get on your knees in your own home and prayed how much does that cost? what clothes do you have to wear? think about how personal you could be with God if you had a one on one relationship with him imagine if you fellowshipped with others who had this personal relationship outside of the building that cost money and the politics that take place there just imagine if God meant to know you for who you are without going through another person now I ask if this could be would that man have killed that doctor in the name of God?
