Created in ‘His’ Image: 

Humans are the ‘God’ You Know 

Sharing much with the Being called ‘God’ 

Creating so much, good and bad 

Using men to describe our messages 

Intelligence, used to create, destroy, to learn 

From our mistakes 

Authority to dictate over those we deem inferior 

Guiding those we believe in need 

Altering lives, testing those we trust 

Among the good, there is always evil 

Contradiction plays its part 

Our creation being only mythology

Yet all other myths are irrelevant 

Making laws, yet breaking them 

Killing killers for killing 

Anti-adultery, yet spawning children out of wedlock 

Redemption is possible, we say, as we 

Confine those we deem criminals 

Holding them captive in places of torture 

To pay for their sins 

Love thy enemy, but send your children to slaughter 

Those who dare rebel

Destroy whole civilizations in one swarm 

Because they have angered you 

‘Aid the needy’ yet ignoring their pleas 

Condemning suicide, yet sacrificing our children 

For an incredible existence 

That will never endure.
