Atheism is a religion

Post by mnaz » August 15th, 2014, 3:47 am

Atheism is a religion.
War is religion too, and greed,
and empire and fascism, communism,
capitalism, izm, izm, izm, you name it.

If you can't see God in a gift of consciousness,
in the deepest brick red sundown contours,
then so be it, atheism is only a religion.

Imagine trying to figure origin itself.
That sacred space between you and God.
Religion is fine, but God don't politicize it.
Don't lead it into those poison springs.

I think the Universe talks back. So, anyway, may the Force be with you. 8)
See my elegy for Robin Williams, actor, on page 18 of Chat Spot. :( :roll: :idea:

thanks Steve, Terry. This one grew out of an open-discussion board response in a thread about atheism ...
