Religion is the Killer

They raised the altar, stone on stone,

And carved the Name in sacred tone,

Then dipped the blade in holy oil,

And called the kill a sacred toil.

*Religion is the killer.*

They bound the book with iron clasp,

Denied the questions, sealed the gasp

Of doubt that dared to whisper *why?*

And lit the pyre 'neath the sky.

*Religion is the killer.*

They drew the line in sand and creed,

Marked "Chosen" there, and "Damned" for seed

That worshipped light in different guise –

Then taught the children hate's disguise.

*Religion is the killer.*

They marched beneath the banner's fold,

The story of salvation told

With sword and fire, zeal's cruel art –

A fist of doctrine 'round the heart.

*Religion is the killer.*

The statues weep with blood-red rust,

The fractured chalice holds no trust,

The temple glass lies shattered, cold,

Where love was bartered, hatred sold.

*Religion is the killer.*

For paradise paid in blood and bone,

For thrones of dogma, built alone

On fear that fills the god-shaped hole...

The sharpest weapon of the soul.

*Religion is the killer.*

Religion is the killer,

Hubris is the weapon,

Genocide is the outcome!

Resources the prize!!!
