Seeking Similar Familiar Ways

More seem searching these tumultuous days,
In the hopes they will discover...
Other ways less obvious to censor,
Decadence sold to sell.
With an obvious marketing done to do well.
In a culture,
Existing to fiction truth.
Introduced to delude reality.

While pretensions to imitate them,
Are encouraged to follow.
And worship in churches faithfully.
Done to do where many go,
To profess their loyalty to 'Christianity'.
Only to be taught evil and what demons do.
For purposes to observe and witness.
Yet not to judge or compare,
One's own sins committed.
To expect forgiveness given.
During Sunday services.
As discussions continue after sermons to hear,
Based upon hypocrisy and sharing...
Unsolicited opinions about who did what,
When, where and why.
Heard but not to hear themselves,
Enjoying the act of backstabbing.
Hidden to disguise a love to charade.
An art form these days.

Although claiming to be as righteous,
As any 'Christian' around them found.
To quote from scriptures misinterpreted.
Done to do where many go to be,
Around others professing their 'Christianity'.
And...
Chosen to be God's favorites of all humanity.
Yet...
Not to know Christ had been a Jew.
Yes.
Persuaded to be crucified by his own people.

'No.
That's not true!'

What's not true?

'I have heard ministers,
Also confessing of sins committed.'

Go ahead.
Validate the point I'm making.

'Then request members of the congregation,
To tithe a percentage of their weekly salary.
With a witnessing their sins,
Vanish in thin air.
While the minister suddenly gets a message,
Sent from God.
Dramatically leaving the minister,
Knowing to reveal at least 20 or more people,
Capable to donate $100.00 to assist...
Paying for church expenses.
Including the reverend's new Mercedes.'

Uh...
Politics and religion?
Have one thing in common.
Both have their loyal constituents,
Protecting to defend similar agendas.
Agendas for many that are familiar.
Like a routine or holidays to celebrate.
You know...
Life. And the pursuit of happiness.
Many today are attempting to renovate.
With an updating of appearances.

'Why?'

WHY?
Everyone seems to have a need,
To complain about something.
Something they find worthy to fight about.
Then discover years later,
How petty ignorance to create can become!

'That's stupid.'

These are those days, my friend.
Some say will never end.
These are the days.
Of deception, fraud and greed.
Although it's stupidity most conscious see.
Leaving all of us caught up in this insanity.
With no one on the top looking down,
On parading agitators.
As they thoughtfully assess
The multitude of messes they have made.
Up and around found,
In most cities and towns.
Restricting to place limits on all mentalities.

Oh, how deep and thick such ignorance goes?
Who knows,
To ensure these days permanently stay,
Dark.
Behind the unenlightened and blinded minds.
Frightened they will be replaced,
By an ethnic diversity.
When it will be artificial intelligence,
Proving to be more competent...
Then the inventors making them will ever be!

'Ever or never be...what?'

Quick to think independently.

'Then what is the mind good to use for?'

Trust me.
You will never nor ever have that as a concern.
