Pardon if I insult
Your sensibilities this day
I have no time for cults
So hate me, then go pray.
Your timing is atrocious
You have no idea, do you?
That I have been there and back
I'm not here to try to fool you.
I have my own ways to tend to
I can show more than what you want
To experience at this time
I know a secret font.
So don't demean yourselves, or God
By thumping Bibles; think
Of other ways to achieve Nirvana
There are more than your ways in the rink.
So merge with all in this fair world
Heaven is here too
Hell is what you make of life
When you have a narrow view.

Yes many paths and always one more question
the Bible is a very nice book, written by some clever men of their times, not disputing this at all. But to use the context of it in modern times with no respect for the original meanings and so forth is foolish and perhaps even dangerous in the hands of some.
Hang in there.
I feel sorry for those who feel they must pray for you because you don't buy into their dogma.

No, actually you need to study it in it's historical context to realize that it IS a flawed document written by men over several centuries in a male dominated culture and that it has done immeasurable harm to women over the years. It is filled with contradictions and has been used to justify some of the most despicable practices in history. I know seemingly intelligent people who actually believe Noah lived to be 950 years old.

It's not Christian to belittle other people's beliefs.
And, as a Christian woman, I never do that.
Thank you for the lovely poem.
