Heretical Ecclesiastics



Heretical Ecclesiastics

That feeling you’re blessed and good, as you begin to pray
Never mind the cries you heard of the kitten stray
Its divine will, you knowingly say
Then what about the starving children, dying each day?

Religious practice is like sitting naked on a cactus
You pretend it’s not there and you’re in a comfortable chair
Butt reality is the pain from thorn pricks stabbing your ass
Is that ketchup or blood dripping onto the desert grass?

On goes the pretense of ritual and blessing
Do this or that and receive a rich reward
So goes the record and happy delusion becomes truth
Who thought this all up, a schizophrenic pup?

We have honor killings, excommunications and molestations
Liberty of the mind to free the body enemies of religion
And the holy cows literally and figuratively remain free
God and religion have nothing in common you see
