Example
Good Without God by Jez Farmer
Does his soul still linger on the Beagle
And does he still sail to far away isles
Where scientific truth spoke on a finch’s beak
As we look at religion with knowing smiles
Creationism blown to historic files
We know the earth is anything but flat
And a man is not made from piles of dust
Still there are those who want to believe that
And that science is just meaningless chat
And if they must believe that then they must
If it helps with living until they die
Darwin never said that it was unjust
But it is in nature I place my trust
Because it’s better without god, that’s why
A Garret Poet
