ANYTHING BUT JESUS<\/p>\n

Atheism, Judaism and Islam are okay,
\nNative American, Wicca, Santeria too,
\nBut just say a word about dear Jesus,
\nAnd you will find yourself in a stew.<\/p>\n

Hinduism & environmentalism are fine,
\nAlso Buddha has a place at the table,
\nBut just dare mention Christian faith,
\nAnd they’ll give you a very nasty label.<\/p>\n

They argue that it is against the law,
\nThey will even kick you out of school,
\nBut the day when Heaven rejects them,
\nThey’ll realize that they were the fool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
