What Happens Next?

The Humor in Blasphemy

There's a shirt in the store I work at with an image of Jesus being crucified to the cross while several wholesome looking American kids point their fingers and laugh.
It took me a while to figure out why I too found the image humorous.
So many people who take their religion so seriously don't seem to listen to their own words.
Good will towards humankind is possible without a religious belief system being used as a crutch.
I will not deny there are several religious leaders or institutions that work for good in the world.
However, the plethora of people over the centuries that have twisted 'holy' words to justify their own agenda, resulting in corruption, vice and wholesale bloodshed, seems to outnumber those working for good.'

My opinions anger you
yet you sell cheap images of your sacred icon
for pennies and you defile any reverence
by casting it in neon plastic

you glorify an image
while ignoring the words
and I shudder at the things
you do behind closed doors

you justify your actions
with words that aren't your own

and you can never live up to
you are not righteous, you're evil

so I have no qualms as to pointing
at an image of your god and laughing
I can respect culture and tradition
but not your revisionism, manipulation and lies

you're a tool
and you've
made your god
into a clown

you're a fucking joke

The humour in blasphemy
The joy in sacrilege
