F*** Religion

F*** Islam! F*** the stupid way
In which its followers obey
Some murderous prophet pedophile,
F*** all religions that revile
The woman's role in the world--
F*** those who do what they are told
Without questioning what is right--
F*** those who brainwash day and night
Their newborn children with their truth--
There are better ways to spend one's youth
Than worshiping some vengeful God,
Who thirsts for punishment and blood
Of those who won't believe in Him--
F*** all your holy everything!
F*** hell, fuck heaven, fuck the light
That shines like Jesus in the night,
With crosses, robes, and crowns of thorns!--
I'd rather see the break of dawn,
The sun's reflection in the sea--
That is my true divinity.

Your poem speaks volumes about the absurdity of religion. When examined carefully instead of relying on early childhood conditioning, the reality of what religion is, is clear.

A domination of one's spirit. A domination that limits creativity and exploration into the greater meaning of life and how one should live it.
