1
"Christianity came into existence in order to lighten the heart; but now it has first to burden the heart so as afterwards to be able to lighten it. Consequently it shall perish"
2
[Friedrich Nietzsche]
3
As the symbols of the metaphysics of the hangman are taken off the walls of our living rooms
4
Humanity emancipates
5
Christ statues fall and die of age
6
Just like us: in/organic decay
7
The myths of the martyrs have waned
8
No longer do we mourn their loss
9
Their children dance and play their games
10
In the shadow of the great old white cross
11
Wealth heals all wounds and alleviates any kind of pain
12
The shroud of collective oblivion coats any individual scars
13
The widows of the skepticals have passed away before they could retaliate
14
And those who baptised the world with the sword have long been buried
15
And have not arisen from their graves
16
The guardians of righteousness have lost their immaculity
17
The rise of the enlightenment has defeated Christianity
18
But it's legacy of submissiveness prevails in many brave man's heart and soul:
19
The saddening conception that humanity cannot choose it's own destiny
20
With our lives based on the hope for salvation
21
The humanist paradigm is nothing but a charade
22
Condemned to inertia: a passive race
23
We wait and contemplate
24
And even in these days and age some people still believe
25
That Earth is at the center of God's own universe
26
And that man was made the 7th day, evolution is a myth
27
And that even bones of ancient creatures are no evidence of the fact that we are not the end of the chain
28
And they wont leave their ship
29
That is sinking
30
They refuse to leave their ship
31
And while they spoke of grace and love, forgiveness from above
32
They nailed thousands of non-believers to their crude symbol of love
33
The myth that man is the crown of God's creation
34
Breeds the excuse to deplete the Earth today
35
The myth that man is the crown of God's creation
36
Supports our present anthropocentric misconception
