You did this
You made some people want to do and be their best.
You made others drive a sword into their opponent's chest!
You inspired great people to do wondrous selfless acts!
You inspired awful people to act atrociously and then redact.
Weak in flesh, slow in mind, and lacking in virtue, people use you as a crutch.
Strong in pride, fast in the sack, and ready for more, people stuff you in a hutch!
Good, bad, and indifferent, you have helped people attain their best and worst!
Happy, sad, and in-between, people rely on you when they feel cursed.
All religions and philosophies have their pros and cons, for sure.
The Abrahamic Traditions are probably the least quality of pure.

Author's Note
If you weren't aware, the Abrahamic Traditions are (in alphabetical order): Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. These three religions are the only ones in our planet's history that contain fanatics who murder others because of a different belief; they are also the only religions that claim to be "the only way."

Religion is a long-term interest of mine... and the perils that it creates. Thank you for the comment!

Excellent, thought-provoking poem, docebo! I see that you are new here... It's good to have you here in the community!
Thank you very much for the warm welcome!
I am one of the newest here...and never wrote before joining (except academic essays, and the like).
As I live in China right now, I am in a quasi-quarantine lifestyle, and as such, have a lot of time to write. I've wanted to "start" writing for years...and I am now taking a Creative Writing course, coupled with my current situation, and it's begun. :-)
