If I Wrote God (A Naturalist’s Letter) | Abhijit Naskar | Neurosonnets: The Pocket Book of Consciousness

If I wrote God, they’d would be
kind and gentle, not vengeful and jealous.
Freedom of choice would be first commandment,
preventing wrongs they’d stand righteous.

They’d refuse to entertain suffering,
their grand design would epitomize equality.
Sure, their world would still have problems,
but it would be spared from ungodly atrocity.

Law of Nature is its lack of meaning,
as well as its lack of morality.
We needed an image to bear the blame,
and be the imaginary steward of our destiny.

True godliness lies in behavior, not belief.
Hand of God unfolds when human takes the steed.
