Atheists All
Each historic age, Gods seem all the rage,
But always some use a different gauge,
Live not by values from scroll divined,
But by human reason and logic defined.
These atheists don’t believe in Gods,
Find solutions in the physical odds
That chance and circumstance play,
Not the popular supernatural way.
Despite what reason and fact implore,
Gods’re still worshipped, same as before.
And the atheists that live here and now,
To supernatural Gods don’t kneel or bow.
If a God loved by another on this earth,
You just ignore as of no spiritual worth,
You are atheist to the lover of that God,
And from his point of view, quite odd.
You are atheist if you don’t believe in Ka,
Won’t bow before Woden, Indra and Kamsa,
Deny fealty to Satan, Buddha and Allah,
The Holy Ghost, Brahma, Vishnu and Bhaga.
You are atheist if you don’t believe in Zeus,
Or for sun god Apollo have little use,
You’re atheist if you don’t believe in Osiris,
Or if Poseidon’s not the apple of your Iris.
We’re all atheists — kids, dads and mothers,
Some just believe in fewer Gods than others.
Understand why rampant atheism we all reflect,
To know why Gods of all stripes, some reject.
Success Always,
John Michael
In an atheist
He goes beyond both the theist
And the atheist.

..indeed at some time or other in our lives we all tend to reject the belief in a Deity..however life and its scenario quickly puts us back on the road of faith etc.

Seriously though Leland, I tend to think each does as they do....My religion is Catholic...I'm from Irish, Italian parents how could I not be. :op
I had the church in my upbringing....My Child is Christened. I have been know to go to Mass.....but when I feel the need...I believe that nobody has the right to tell anyone else what they should do.
This is a very fascinating and well written piece. I enjoyed ty, Dani
good write, well crafted
as for the content, I'm with Ted

And yes man is blessed with the freedom to choose his path...But then again life is too short to waste on confusion and error.
The Islamic view is that there is no compulsion in religion: the right way is clear from error.
I testify that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. I am a sincere advisor to you and to anyone who fears death and looks forward to a life of ease and happiness that Allah is your Lord and that you have no other Lord but Him.
Best regards,
Safi
I have no control over how one believes. Atheists or not...
Everyone has their own bag..
Have a great 2004
I have been taking a lot of flack lately for being an atheist. I just don't occupy my time with living my life for a God whose existence I have no first hand knowledge of. I do however know that the life on this planet exists and so I live my life for life. I take notice of my actions with regard to how it affects the world around me. I have no interest in living my present life for the hope of a hereafter. I do live for the hereafter of the life that will continue after I have passed on. I hope that made some sort of sense.
Happy New Year to you. ~ Sara
