Fast Food Chains Of Faith
Someone has said to me: Brother, if God is everywhere, Why should I go to church? And I said to him: Brother, the atmosphere is full of water If you get thirsty, you just don't drink right away You have to go to the source of water or a well In order to quench your thirst. Same with our spiritual life Your soul...

Premium Member I Took Satan's Throne
I strolled into Hell like a VIP/ Satan said, "what's this nonsense I see"/ "Bro, I out evil you", I smirked with glee/ Then he rage-quit chess, forfeiting to me/ God gasped, his jaw hit the floor/ "I designed Satan, what is this lore"/ I shrugged, "he misplayed the Sicilian once more"/ "Then fell for a joke about the grocery store"/ He plotted...

Premium Member GOD'S MEEK ONES
We are the innocent ones who were verbally and physically eviscerated by heathens who deemed us weak. The evil ones punished our hearts, souls and minds leaving us in an internal pool of blood. We endured the ruthlessness and brutality from all whom wrongly believed they were somehow above us. There were so many...

Through twilight veils, where echoes rise/ The hollow spheres in shadow thrive/ Unholy husks, where echoes moan/ A broken mirror, void and throne/ 1) Thaumiel: Twin God's Divide A realm where power splits its core/ Opposing forces wage war/ Not unity but sundered might/ A dance of fire and endless night/ 2) Chaigidel: Confusion's Crown A tangled mind, a frenzied tide/ Where reason bends and fears...

Good and Faithful
I've never seen an angel. I seldom hear your voice. But I know you sent Jesus to offer us all a choice. I know I've felt your glory. I've felt your mercy and peace. I know you're writing a story about how much you love me. I've never seen an angel. I don't have to to know you're real, because I can feel you beside...

The Sacrament
Bliss as words like wine pour over a pure slate, staining it with their meaning and reddening it with their tones. Fervor takes over; the scene unfolds like something already decided as one letter follows another like drops from a chalice, dripping until it overflows. My neck is craned from fatigue and out of reverence as ideas become flesh before my eyes. Each word is holy— each...

Judaism The Mitzvah—God blesses every good deed Thousands of years old God Yahweh made a covenant with Abraham that if Abraham and his people the Hebrews Obey Him, He'd consider 'em, His chosen people, watch over 'em God sent the Hebrew to kill their enemies sparing not man, woman, child or even the suckling babe On the other hand, God said He...

Premium Member In the Name of God
Since the beginning of time wars have been fought in the name of men’s gods crusades against evil and injustice but too often a case of “we’re right - you’re wrong” with each side both judge and jury I’ve stopped wondering if there’s a god and decided long ago to live my life assuming there’d be a day of reckoning when...

It's not enough to say, with however much great might, America's Religious Right is wrong to flap fight wings and even bite against Earth's spirit natured Left. All sacred EarthTribe's could cooperatively respect in more resonantly wealthy faith and resiliently healthy humor re-membering re-collecting re-cognizing re-connection peak passionMind/pleasureBody unconditional re-ligioning warm after-glow communion omnipresently expand-theistic win/win opportunity. Radically irreligious RightWing monotheism, an anthro-supremacist SunFather cult, is wrong LeftBrain pulpit dominance oppressing depressing suppressing repressing healthy...

ETERNAL QUESTION
ETERNAL QUESTION We all live in a world full of belief Yet often with little understanding And sciences too, deep at its roots Religious compliance when it suits Yet with a loyalty to the branding And for some, can still offer relief Ready-made answers for unknowns Especially if there’s to be no analysis A link to God doesn’t need religion Yet faith still does require...

Premium Member The Jewel Of Jesus
A polytheist would argue just one God That there are endless guards and many rods given these wards With many temperaments and aims devotion for a supreme being Compassionate gods spread charity, clarity’s light and goodwill Whereas others spread hate, blood still spills Relates—mayhem and darkness The God of the Old Testament unforsaken is the nakedness not ever to turn the other cheek not even for the meek He portrays...

Memento on the Moon
Memento on the moon, our existence based on what we cannot see. Subjective logic we measure by mere senses within our body A penny lay I law on moon’s largest crater saying, ‘In God We Trust’ Nay a picture of God found on this coin, rather a man once worshipped Proving our everlasting toil of higher power on earth...

Premium Member The Distant Song
Perhaps you heard a distant song That mortals cannot sing; Perhaps it made your heartbeat long For such a pretty thing. Perhaps you saw beyond your eyes What dirt and clay can’t form; Perhaps you know what beauty lies Beyond the mortal storm. Why then, pursue it, as you must, One cannot let it go; But gold is not akin to rust, We can but little...

The Eternal Question: God, No God, Maybe God
Sometimes I fear I've never known you Like a leaf might feel It knows its mother tree Until she sheds its crispy remains, Only to let its pieces wither Into the same substance That gave them both life I wonder Is this life? To live, Only to languish; To love, Only to lament; To long, Only to lose? To render, Only to revoke? This is what I...
