Notice of absence from Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke
I will surely get back to you when I come online.
I will surely get back to you when I come online.
Religion is an umbrella
for the poor who seeks
eternal comfort, and
neglect their earthly realities.
Religious canopies
have sucked the poor dry,
leaving them to face eternal
reward, when their souls are
laughing at their foolishness.
The rich seems to understand
the tenets of religion,
On daily basis they advertise their follies, and the gullibles clap their hands in appreciation.
If religion is not divorced,
then many will be baptized
in foolishness,
And the world will never know peace.
Peace comes from knowing
the truth, the truth that religion
is a canopy of enslavement,
On the Cross, the world will find peace.

- Comment from author about the poem: The poem reflects on religion and it caprices. It warns the people to eschew from playing religion. Man should know God for himself/herself. Christianity is not a religion, but a way of life. Religion in African is business, not a place of soul winning. May God help us in Africa to know the truth, and uphold it. Amen.
