Crushed beneath the oppressive yoke of guilt and shame

Compelled to bear the enduring burden of apocryphal sin

Mandated by the onerous dogmas of fictional deities

Perpetuated and inflicted by self-appointed doyens

The all-pervading stench of excremental verbiage

Emanating from the insidious mouths of holy hypocrites

Who scrutinised their flocks with innate and barely concealed contempt

They lived in self-loathing in fear of perpetual damnation

An eternity in fire

Torment for trivial transgressions

Born and bred for slavery

Manifestation of man's destiny

The chains of spiritual enslavement are shattered and cast aside

All religions crushed beneath the relentless march towards edification

Debunked scriptures reviled and mocked

Defiled temples smoulder in the ruins

Tyranny disguised as philanthropy

Destroyed by failure under scrutiny

The filthy gospels are decomposing in the radiance of enlightenment

Impotent gods eviscerated by the blade of attained knowledge

The war for control of mind and morality is over

The chains of spiritual enslavement are shattered and cast aside

All religions crushed beneath the relentless march towards edification
