The Pronouncement

  They know it, surely, they know, 'tis true, I tell you, they know, of the hunger in the land, they know, of the anger in the land they know: from the snow-capped mountains' peaks, to the legislature where insanity leaks, the voice is loud, the resonance is clear, the citizen no longer is held dear. The votes were counted, the seats were filled, the oaths were taken, the candidates were thrilled, for the people they vowed to stand, yea, for every person that tills the land, but the tales of valor they told, so grand, became like unsalted fish, so truly bland, the enemies rose up from all the land, of imaginary threats, they sung in the land; look around, the sorrow is palpable, in the land indeed, the fear is tangible, the tears on the fabric of a nation torn by leaders whose ideas by time are worn: the mirror is broken, but still it reflects the image of a people impaired by defects created by leaders whose greed perfects the ruin of a nation and its grave effects.

God made man in his own image, and Allah summoned Mohammed to haeven on a winged horse. There should be a mention of YWHW destroying humanity in a manner also described in the Epic of Gilgamesh. Thats a bit of a mouthful for a start. Where would social and scientific norms be without religion? Does religion dictate morality? The answer to this a vague "it depends." In Shitoism, a sexual orgasm is handled pretty much as a state of spirtual enlightenment. Try talking about sex in coservative Abrahamic faith circles and the disapproval will have you crossing over Mecca and Jerusalem and all the way to the most hedonistic clubs of Berlin. Should it be thus though? Humanity not only loves s...
