There’s Only One God
Intro: up to 50 words Why are there so many religions ? Why not just one ? As I get older I seem to question things !
Main text of your writing.
We’ve got Mormons
Muslims and Seikhs
Jehovah Witnesses
and Orthodox Greeks.
There’s Christadelphians
and good old C of E,
Rastafarians
the Salvation Army.
Buddhists in Tibet
Roman Catholics,
Hindus and Anglicans
Quakers and Baptists.
So many religions
more than a few,
but why not just one
surely they all can’t be true ?
But each does think they are true, hence all the strife and warfare. A nice light-hearted little write.

Hi Val. Had a couple of Jehovah Witnesses at my door recently.I had a chat with them and I told them I believed in God and also told them there are many false religions though. But they believe in some odd things too but they seemed genuine enough. I said we’re all going to find out one day and they agreed and went to another neighbour. Thanks for reading Val. ☺

They say you should not talk about politics and religion; it’ll only cause trouble, so you are brave so to do. But you did so in a light hearted and enjoyable way, and so avoided the ton of bricks. However, the question is implied and there will be many answers, but who is to say which one is correct. Not me! I have already crossed swords with some UKA members on the subject, and regretted doing so.
Nice read Kevin,
Regards, Michael
Thanks for reading my poem Michael much appreciated. Yes it is a touchy subject but then again there are others too.Politics can get people hot under the collar,and I’ve seen punches thrown between two blokes over differences about their football team.Then again my team Coventry City would make anybody angry ! Cheers. Kevin.
