"What is your religion?"

"What is your religion?"

A Poem by Jon Roggie

This is where I get myself in trouble.

I don't believe in religion.

Fine.

I said it.

Religion carries too much weight.
  Just dragging people along.

Now,
  I will soon be dragged from my house.

Joke?

It happens across the world.

Simple disagreement leads to violence.
  Each ignoring a basic tenet.

I don't have a religion.

I have a belief.

I am a Christian.. ( : I think hateful people, will find any reason to be hateful. Religion seems to be a convenient excuse for bad behavior.

I keep coming back to a very simple thought. It is just difficult to explain.
