You speak of God as if you know,
Standing there at my door.
It's early in the morning.
You come to tell me about God.
But you know nothing.
Admitedly, I know less.
Admitedly, I am less.
God is love.
You woke me up.
But your eyes are closed.
Look around
Keep your priests.
Keep your churches.
Keep your God.
Mine doesn't require a house.
My God exists in all things.
My God exists beyond all things.
Your God is my God,
but my book isn't your bible.

I wrote this in honor of the guy that came to my door to attempt to convert me.

It's not so much religious nerds that bother me. It's those ones that show up at my door at ungodly hours.

No need to apologize, your interpretation was good. It does apply to any and all religious people who attempt to convert you. I just happened to be thinking of that guy.

Makes me feel like singing...

:sing: "...Woken by a missionary, come to deliver, a message of peace, yeah.
I told her peace was, what I had, until I was woken by a missionary..." ~Shihad - Missionary Song

The only thing that could ever be inappropriate about Shihad is how much I love them so =p :D

interesting perspective. i can see both side of it...people who have a message they believe is true and wanting to share it so others can feel the same....and the people who dont want to know/believe something else or nothing at all.
good poem

'Will you catch me when my wings crumple?
Or watch and laugh as I stutter and stumble?
Will you hold me as the storm rages round us both?
Or find shelter for yourself and send me a rope'
