I’m tired of being a heretic, Of not having a personal deity. A savior who’d knock on my window Or tumble down the chimney Or tangle in fault lines.
Halos are always in style, So I’m considering drastic change. Some mind boggling alteration Of personality. Or maybe a bit of mental bondage.
I am interested in Hinduism. They’ve got funky, jazzed up shrines. Buddhism can teach me how to hum, While Christianity just seems dull. But I’d like to just be an individual, With freedom to decide. Without having someone’s faith, Have me locked in and confined.
In any case organized religion is Like organized crime. Bogus mass intentions, That solicit for time. Mind trips down the spiritual line Lead to dead end questions And offer a questionable divine.

I know very damn well what you're talking about. Mostly because it seems we're lumped into the heretic crowd, but I've almost grown to hate Protestant Christians in my life, but then I do live in Alabama. lol but no I don't hate them it's just I don't like 80 percent of their preachers.
I could not have done better on this myself, I actually have two anti-established religion poems, Drug of Religion and You Are

I agree with you that organized religion is like organized crime. So many groups believe that theres is right.The perfect religion, which i personally have yet to find- would just be a place where we could all just believe what we believe.I've been studying religion for a long time and all of them claim peace but have none. Each church, congrecation, worship, house of GOD-ETC, BELIEVES THAT THEY ARE BETTER THEN SOMEONE ELSE. Catholics think their better the Christians. Baptists think their better then Judisim, and son on. It's all so annoying and the funny thing is, is that none of them have any idea what they are talking about- anyway- check out my short story!_good job_KaT;)
