The Sides of Religion (Louis Toliver Jr

The Sides of Religion (Louis Toliver Jr - Swartz, LA)

And on the first day

God said let there be light

Some billions years later

We are still waiting to be enlightened

Do you prefer white or back Jesus?

I got an idea!

Let’s talk about it

Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism

You only can pick one

Oh yeah, Buddhism and Christianity

Would you like a side of Catholicism?

The Pope rules you

Unless your Baptist or Methodist

Then who cares

Shhh, you hear that?

Some children were blown up

They were just Jews

It’s not their fault you don’t like them

Guess whose running for President?

A man that says God leads him

Oil companies are richer

What country does God want us to invade now?

Are you suspicious of Scientology?

Don’t speak of Astrology or Numerology

You will be stoned

Women obey your men

Or you will be stoned

Once upon a time people were ignorant

They still are

And spirituality waits to be found

God approves this message
