Religion

Of all man's contrivances religions must rank as one of the worse
Established by superstition fear and acceptance, of a life time curse.

To worship, invoke and also sacrifice
Even their own children were asked to pay the price.

God of the Hebrew and long after Horus the sun
For the plurality of man and always only one.

Little written but a lot was said
A living one God who sacrificed a son and rose from the dead.

Christ a practitioner of the Jewish brethren and holy word
Simplicity and truth in the story about the bird.

"Forgive them father they know not what they are about to do
Things in my name and will say they do it for you."

Much significance in a slight change of words
Alpha was one and changed into thirds.

A religion established by two words of church and rock
One the temple and the other a parable of talk.

Constantine the divine emperor who was to become their  friend
Gave them power in the beginning which would turn out to be their end.
