Rubber Bullets

Hidden in the mist
of the internet fog,
there is a man
who looks at my blog,
completely opposed
to all that i say
not in his words
but his life and his way .

For me, to be secular
is the best way to go,
religion is finished -
its dated and slow.
Israel can sometimes
be in the wrong,
to follow them blindly
is like singing a song
that has no rhythm or tune,
it just sounds like a trap
one sided, close minded
fundamentalist crap.

So for those roving eyes
that see what i say,
and oppose it steadfastly
in their lives every day,
i warn to not worry:
there aren't many like me.
Most don't want to know,
most don't want to see
that global atrocities,
suffering and death
are caused when you whisper
under your breath
that its okay to be stupid,
closed off and dumb -
thats right, little piggy -
just suck on your thumb,

Cause deep down i know
that its not how you feel:
palestinians are people,
reform judaism is real;
these things won't change
they won't go away,
believing that they're wrong
is not going to pay
Accept the reality
and move on with your life,
know that with religious dogma
comes fundamentalist strife.

I know that you're reading
every word that i write,
and I know that your thinking
that i'm wrong and you're right,
and I know that you think that
you are living a good way
and you are - with value
and honour, i say.
But think about what it means
to have us all think alike
and then,
when the world is destroyed
you can think
what you like.

I think that all Jews should be religious, support Israel without question and think alike when it comes to anything involving Judaism as a religion and nationality. I only pray that G-D will silence people like you who's only goal in life is to disrupt the smoothly flowing stream of good people who live life the way that G-D intended. I think that Jews must merge as one behind one so called 'religious dogma' to be strong and take their place as the chosen people controlling the world. If we do not, we won't be able to oppose the evil threat that wants to destroy us.Besides, most people are too stupid to think for themselves anyway-They need someone to tell them how to think...someone like me...

anonymous the first: You're a tosser. Not that it's a bad thing, plenty of successful people are tossers. Like George W Bush.

Open Mindedness is IMPORTANT!

It's fine if you don't agree with everything he says. But don't expect others to fall in line with what you say. Jews are where they are today because we aren't sheep.

Herman, you rock.
