Ancient fiction

Tired of ancient fiction
Tired of superstition
I fear no hell
Expect no heaven
 
Tired of irrational rituals
Tired of a lack of miracles
No evidence forthcoming
 
We are born non-believers
Then led astray
Ideas from our beginnings
Myths of the cave
Ideas we should have outgrown
Poison modern living
 
Time for joined-up thinking
The same rules applying to everything
Why the privileged protection?
Faith is not a virtue
Faith is not untouchable
Everything’s there to be questioned
 
Such groundless assertions
Shouldn’t go unchallenged
Belief is not above
Rational inquiry
Prayers for the victims
The definition of irony
 
Tired of ancient fiction
Tired of superstition
I fear no hell
Expect no heaven
 
Tired of irrational rituals
Tired of a lack of miracles
No evidence forthcoming
