A long time ago
People created
Stories and myths
To understand the mystery
The rise of sun and moon
The growing of the wheat
But then
In some dark moment of need
Someone decided the stories were
Absolutely, undeniably True
And ever since
The blood of millions shed
In sacrifice
Of unholy ideas to
Conquer and control.
~ Laurence Overmire

Very true. "God was created by man" may seem blasphemous, but it is true. As Karl Marx said ‘Religion is opium of the people"
