Religion Is Philosophy

 

Great Maker beyond

human knowledge.

Our time is short.

Our knowledge finite.

Reality infinite.

We struggle

to understand.

We create

structure

to make it so.

We build

and grow

the best we can.

It’s a struggle

every day you know.

We are born

one day

and there it is.

How to make

sense

we struggle to do.

We organize

come together in groups.

We create

systems

to see us through

Political,

language,

business,

social

and religious

to name just a few.

Each system

designed

to meet a

need.

Each system

gives us

structure,

something to help

us through.

Helps us make

sense,

gives us control

in our

finite

little place.

Religion

as with government

is a process of control.

Religion

is a philosophy,

nothing more,

as the

Great Maker’s

mind is beyond

ours to know.

There are those

who say

they understand

because

the Great Maker

told them so.

That’s impossible

you see,

the Great Maker’s

mind

for us is

impossible

to know.
