Perhaps the function of religion
Has got something to do
With the function of love.
But what is love?
Perhaps love
Is not an act
Or a mindset.
Perhaps love
Is a positive, inclusive energy
Which we choose to channel.
The function of religion, therefore,
Must be to close that channel
By insisting
That negative, exclusive energy is better.
The function of religion
Is to suppress love.
Religion is where love is not.
So what is our choice
In this New Age?
Our choice might be
To affirm spirituality.
Our choice might be
To affirm spirituality
With the religion taken out.
Religionless spirituality
Is free spirituality.
And to be free is to be God.
God is not religious.
God is bigger than that.
God is love.

Religion is a terrorist behaviour
Perhaps love
Preconceived idea
The unwisdom of belief
A new scripture shortly to be published
What is the New Spirituality?
The Theologians' Brains Trust
Pope terror talks
Why is church so serious?
How is religion?
