THE ATHIEST SITS THERE




He sits there, watching society,
He sees the Christians fighting,
He sees the wars,
He sees the Muslims killing,
What the hell is going on?

He is sure he had heard in the bible
“Thou shalt not kill”
He can’t understand it
What the hell is going on?

He remembers when he was a kid
He remembers Sunday school
He remembers the commandments
It was all lies
What the hell is going on?

He talks with his neighbour
He talks on a Sunday morning
His neighbour talks about the bums in the park
“Get a job. I’m not going to help you
I’ve got to go and praise my god!!”
What the hell is going on?

He says, “This is why.”
“Now I know.”
He says, “I’m an atheist.”
He still can’t understand society
What the hell is going on?
