I am proud to be an atheist.
Faith, religion I resist.
No gods can sway me in their lanes.
I am free. I’ve lost my chains.
I am proud to be an atheist.
Gods and deities I never missed.
My time I spend on other things,
whatever my tomorrow brings.
I am proud to be an atheist.
The feet of Christ I never kissed.
My mouth will never touch this dirt
that has left so many hurt.
I am proud to be an atheist.
But in what does my faith consist?
Let me answer you this way:
the time of faith has passed away.
I am proud to be an atheist.
I hope to dissipate all godly mist.
Will you help and lend your hand,
together we can clean this land.
I am proud to be an atheist.
At all the gods I’ll shake my fist.
Fear not their empty futile threats,
for deity always fails, forgets.
I am proud to be an atheist.
For gods do not exist.
Of this I am sure and certain
that no one lurks behind the curtain.
I am proud to be an atheist.
From my life gods are dismissed.
Please do not pray for my poor soul,
for I am happy as a whole.
I couldn’t disagree more – but I admire the poetic expression of your convictions
Well, that’s rather unfortunate. Nonetheless, I appreciate your honesty and candor. Thanks.
Great message, and well presented. Keep it up!
Thanks!
WOW… 8 stanzas! You’re really proud of this fact 😛
I cannot praise my atheism highly enough. 🙂
I might have to request permission to use this poem as a prologue for my upcoming novel titled Small gods. **smiles** Cool!
Feel free to use it as you see fit.
