Eric Obame

I have no quarrel with atheists
In fact, I respect their point of view
I only believe in God, or a God, because I want to
My faith is just that
A belief without anything concrete to back it
No solid proof or facts
Just words and faith
I have no quarrel with atheists
For I realized, some years ago, how groundless was my belief
I cannot prove that I have a soul
But I believe I do
I believe that there is a heaven, and a hell
Because it somehow makes me feel good
I speak to my version of God
But it is always a one-sided conversation
I never get an answer to any of my questions
My words never attract a response
And if they did, I would be labeled insane
My faith is restrained by my reason
I cannot recreate God in the lab
I cannot predict God’s actions
I cannot repeat all of creation
I cannot verify God by science—knowledge—wisdom
And I say God, but it might be Gods
As for thousands of years—tens of thousands of years
Many humans believed in Gods as diverse in their nature as we
Gods to represent the many aspects of our societies and us
I have no quarrel with atheists
I do not have a rational argument against their point of view
Compared to theirs, mine seems rather foolish
But I prefer to be a fool
