Religion is just a placebo-
an opiate for the masses.
They pop god like a pill,
administered once a week
with a glass of grape juice.
Yes, participating in worship
alleviates pain for a while,
but it’s only short-term.
It must more than
occasional medication;
God should be
whole body transplant.
He should become
part of who we are,
not just taken
as a weekly dose.
We need to be transformed
by an intimate relationship
not some informal diagnosis.
He’s the ultimate Doctor,
after all;
He can heal anything
that ails us.
