3) Atheist

3) Atheist
The wasted hours of praying,
In front of a stone carving,
And other ironical rituals,
Sets afire atheistical spirits.

Every god is a symbol,
And all religions a party, political,
They promise you an asylum or salvation;
Just like others, to stay in contention.

Because your parents, forced
You from your childhood,
Fearing the stigmas of society,
Bond you are with a (religious) party.

Held sacred the ancients, best sellers
Helped by longest ever campaigns,
But from mere followers of it,
Fanatical we’ve become, in spirit.

Compete with science, theories;
Like the world was created in seven days,
Or came through the navel, because of people,
Conditioned like Pavlov’s dogs.

1> Atheist
Spinning on a cause and effect question which is one of my favorites, regarding origin of religion and spiritualism, and deliberately focusing on a one sided view of an anti-fanatic.
