My spiritual journey is taking me to many places. This includes a place where Christian Scripture has become much more meaningful and alive for me. When Christianity is all about saying the right words, when it is about a "rapture" that will happen some day, or if it is about making my life more pleasant, it is only a farce! When it tries to protect itself or expand itself through military might, it is a farce and NOT following in the way of Jesus!
I believe Karen has it right; it is not the man you follow, the theology you subscribe to, or the book you adhere to. It is and always will be that part that exists in your heart and sould that knows what you should do...and it starts with trusting yourself first, and maintaining a spiritual walk. I agree with Ed, the last two lines are keepers.
good and poigngat words-religion is so laced with hypocracy-the truth is not-i experienced some religious abuse as a teen-spitituality is where one finds teir God center or whatever, not in religion
These corrupt religious frauds are more deadly than the Muslim terrorists because they pollute the gullible populace's minds, passing themselves off on extremely intelligent, unsuspecting people, and use brainwashing tactics and neo-cheating to prey on lesbians, gays, noncomformists, using lowly educated and mentally challenged "mules" to force religious belief and spread ignorant propaganda laced with lethal doses of bigotry and hatred. It infiltrates these websites and radio stations and spreads like the swine flu...when religion turns brothers and sisters against one another, it's time to annihalate these socio-paths and eliminate all such nonsense, of which I am in contact with spiritual abuse reprobates doing what I have just described. Today's Christianity teaches and preaches hatred. It is against the law and these disloyal factions will be prosecuted for cybercrimes throughout the world. This type of personality feeds off of white supremacy power and mind control of which they have little of. Switch the radio station. Nice informative poetry, Dayvid.
