The Peace Of Love.

Goldfinch60



The religions are there,

Buddhism, Muslimism and Christianity

Trying to teach people their way,

Their way in religion.

But organise religion is a farce

As Buddha was not a buddhist,

Muhammad was not a muslim,

And Jesus was not a Christian.

They were teachers,

Teachers who taught love,

Love was their religion.

Why can people not understand that

We should all learn to love,

And love will make the world strong,

Strong and full of peace.

        Agreed. But it ain't happening, is it Andy. Why?

        • Goldfinch60

          Very true Dave. Those who have the power in the world do not want it to happen as there will be nothing in it fore them if creating love for all was to work.

            Good write Gold. I wouldn't say you've given it up completely, even if you've given up being 'religious'.
            There is the thing too, that 'christian' was first use in a derogatory way in the New Testament writings.
