People are OFFENDED

When we talk about EVOLUTION

People FEAR truth

And the SCIENCE behind it


People WANT to believe

But what is LEFT

To BELIEVE in?

People are AFRAID


People don’t LIKE

NON-BELIEVERS!

We are FREAKS of nature

In which they fear us and NATURE


In the END

Religion causes your WARS

And ENDS your peace

Which is WHAT you fight for


God didn’t MAKE me

He is not MY X or Y

My MOTHER and my FATHER

Made ME who I am


I am my OWN person

I have my own WILL

My own THOUGHTS and FEELINGS

I am an INDIVIDUAL, I am one!


God is NOT my savior

I am an ATHEIST

I have my own BELIEFS

I believe in not BELIEVING!

The author's comments:
These are my beliefs. I know I will be criticized, but aren't all the best works criticized? I WANT your negative attention. I HOPE for it. But, I beg of you, see from my point of view. Do not form opinions on a topic because of one experience.
