Divine War Crimson Credulity, By Brian37
Online The splatter
Of grey
Matters of bullets
Convey
Would they do the same
If it were Harry Potter
Or Star Wars hero
Luke Skywalker?
Would they impale
The enemy
Over blasphemy
If done in fictional name?
To arms to arms
Defend green eggs and ham
Crush all those to speak ill
Of our Candyland
Disembodied brains
Toil in our thoughts
Claims of super powers
Suffer human loss
Why cant they see
It is merely Dawkin's moth
Our crimson credulity
A catastrophic loss
Emerald weeds
Numbered by four
Are as equal
To claims of Thor
Yet we make no plots
Or policies
We do not kill
Over these absurdities
Please bury Santa
In his blood drenched suit
And his tactic of fear
Blinding all from truth
Finite is ok
It is reality
Nothing to die for
Is our only noble goal
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

“A meritocratic society is one in which inequalities of wealth and social position solely reflect the unequal distribution of merit or skills amongst human beings, or are based upon factors beyond human control, for example luck or chance. Such a society is socially just because individuals are judged not by their gender, the colour of their skin or their religion, but according to their talents and willingness to work, or on what Martin Luther King called 'the content of their character'. By extension, social equality is unjust because it treats unequal individuals equally.” "Political Ideologies" by Andrew Heywood (2003)
