The Triumph of Christianity

This is historical fiction but unfortunately it may still apply to some Christians today!

`The Triumph of Christianity

The old gods are dead

their statues destroyed

and crushed by the armies

of the Light

Like graves their temples lie

silent and cold, full of lifeless

bodies of those who served before

Ra, Atun, Osiris

all crushed by the holy arms

of the anointed priest

Zeus,Apollo, Hades

all thrown to the fiery

pits of Tartarus

by the risen Lord

The Lord has won

The Light has won

A new age begins

in the world

of believers

Let the age of fools,

hypocrites and greedy

begin in the land

of the believers

Nice write, and very well written imagery. It's very true, on how some Christians have been like that through the ages, but hopefully most have changed. I suppose I am Christian, but my beliefs are a little different than others. Everyone is the same, I don't care what the bible or anyone says anymore. I don't think you would go to hell for not believing in God or not praying enough. The past is littered with wars and deaths dedicated for religion, but what kind of God would want that? You really are a fantastic writer, your pieces really make me think about life. Beautiful job, keep writing.

The Christian Church has so many skeletons in the closet they had to build crypts underneath Rome to house all the bones! But a happy slave is better off than an anarchist constantly under attack. Of course, Satan might not agree. According to Milton, Satan feels it is better to rule in hell than to serve in heaven. And he acts as if it is because he is defending freedom...freedom to do this or that...whatever one wishes. But the truth is...we all serve someone. We must. Nice write.
