Sum of all histories
We march home, alone
With determined paths…
But all roads lead to Rome
There are different routes…
To God, from any distance
But with no chief of staff
We take the path…
Of least resistance
We’re natural followers, and believers
Atheism… is a skill we acquire
Neo-agnosticism, is our chosen schism
Where unknown and unknowable transpire
See, I’ve held back, from conditioning you
With a word of religious instruction
Until you arrive at a suitable age
To muse, using your own gumption
The Ten Commandments, debased and replaced
With a decuple command lines, then interfaced
Prob… possibly in haste, and to my disgrace
With a schoolboy error… soon to be faced
Our sciences, religions and gods
Are… certainly not the issue
It’s more, their handy willingness
To be exploited, and misused
And even the Pope, worries that if we…
Are inattentive to AI “evolution”
The human person, will soon become
But “fodder for algorithms”
We are in danger of having our attention
Captured and hijacked by counterfeit persons
That adds insertions, to our version
Of the sermons, causing them to worsen
Oh, the irony, it’s pure comedy
Robots will steal his best audience
So both Christians, and Darwinians
Will unite… in each other’s defence
Obedience through loyalty
Rather than through fear
Cos, that one, won’t work anymore
Not ever again. Not here
Oh, and today… martyrdom is ok
Though it’s still bad for your health
Want to be sacrificed for the cause?
Then, please sir… help yourself
