RE: Morning Chorus - Photography/Poetry Collaboration by @raj808 & @soyrosa
Quite a combination there of the church bells and your poetry. That is so true that religion often is the cause of war since the crusades. The combination of the photography and your words makes one ponder where we are right now in this time and age.
Yeah... it is a question that could be considered quite divisive, but I suspect mainly by religious people.
I'm pretty confident in stating that opinion as fact myself. Or rather I feel it's mans ability to use politics to pervert the tenants of religion into dogma that has caused so much bloodshed and suffering. Deep at the root of most religions are the same tenants of love, understanding and patience. It's the succession of schisms through political maneuvering that have created the divides all the way back to biblical times.
Yeah... me too. I don't think we have developed all that much in that it's still politics (in one form or another) that keeps all schisms relevant. I am aware that is a very simplistic (broad) analysis but it is how I see it. I used to think a lot about these issues when I was younger, until I realized it was just making me depressed lol
Thanks for your thoughtful and insightful comment @watersnake101
