The empires fall down, transformed in useless ruins

Nobility of thought? In a material world inspired by desires

The dead hands of religion sterilize the wisdom

Mass of confused beings vanish in an atrocious fanaticism

Avid for love, needy of forgiveness mired in ignorance

Abstainers of the eternal pleasures, victims of massive fraud

Blinded by the faith for a puny god

Glorious ability to enslave a depraved animal

Through immaculate awareness

Redemptor of puritans, proclaimers of self-deceit

Orators of fraud with hypocritical complacency

Under the yoke of a fruitless falsehood

Commanded by the enthroned liar

Embraced by his eunuch host

The ice age of religious thought comes to an end

Sing praises to the wasteland

behold a forsaken and inglorious earth

("Faith means not wanting to know what is true."

—Friedrich Nietzsche)
