God vs. Allah…

As a Buddhist I have to admit,

I know very little about all this shit,

But from my point of view,

I see very little difference with regards most of it…

God & Allah, both omnipotent, both existing for some but not all,

Neither have taken nor will they ever take a big fall,

From grace if you will, or from the love of their minions,

There is only one thing different I see from my own observations,

Many do listen, and many do make, just as I do, these opinions…

I don’t portend to tell the world how to think, believe or what faith to worship,

But from what I see, I can tell there are zealots in all religions, all beliefs, man, what a trip,

The believers in Allah, while being for the most part, like the believers in God,

Do for their supreme being go out and kill and be killed sometimes in death squads…

Is that the way of a true believer in the Muslim faith; that worships Allah?

I cannot believe nor can I truly understand the why’s and where for’s regards this practice,

Why does one have to die, to truly make his “supreme being” realize he is worthy?

Is it not enough to do good deeds, to be as close to that beings perfection here on earth?

Why must killing be the only way, why must we as a people of this planet,

Treat life with such ill-regard, children carrying bombs, to show how they feel towards Saddam,

Would it not be better to have those same children carrying psalms, & just loving their moms…?

Is there anymore to be said, God versus Allah, which one will win, who cares, neither,

As far as this writer is concerned, so let me herein take a long breather…
