New Agnostics
We are the New Agnostics
 The philosophers
 The free thinkers
 We don’t purport to know the world
 We take every human truth with a grain of salt
 No man knows their God
 No being knows its own fate
 In between the lines
 Outside of the laws of our world
 Existence cannot be explained
 Stop forth the silly squabbles between beliefs
 None are right
 None are wrong
 Choose what you feel is right
 But don’t force it upon others
 
 Personally, 
 I do not believe in God
 I see this world of suffering
 I see a world of humanity
 With the greatest acts of love 
 Purported alongside the greatest acts of hate
 All acted out by humanity
 I see no hand but humanities
 I see random sequence
 And I see many options for this world’s explanation
 Why is one wrong, 
 Simply because it has never been exposed to the word of the other?
 How is a God of love willing to let such atrocities take part?
 Some scream of free will.
 But free will is possible without atrocities.
 The Bibles God is a misogynist
 He is a petty dictator.
 Does it surprise any that under him we have become petty dictators our self?
 I believe in a disconnect with the Bible’s God
 I do not believe words written millennia ago
 In a different language that have been wrongly translated
 And then translated again.
 And the gospels!
 How do we know that we read the right ones?
 Constantine was a pagan!
 He bought belief in God for victory in battle and sex in bed
 He knew not the true word of God
 He just had the Bishops choose and create 
 The gospels that most conformed with Rome’s needs
 Science is also a religion though
 It is an understanding of our surroundings
 Science is described by Logic
 Religion is described by faith
 Logic is easier to prove
 It is there in front of us
 Logic seems to be the more apt path to understanding
 Science explains the world where religion cannot
 It slowly steps upon the hallowed ground of religion
 But what will be the next step?
 What will take the place of science?
 That is the real question.
