Inspired by Moonwashed Weekly Prompt #127 – Infinite &
Reena’s Exploration Challenge #265 – You live in a world where no gods exist.
for every mind conscious
there are infinite depictions
of what a god is
or what gods aren’t
every shape and form
every sort of dogma
every possibility of the imagination is presented
for humanity’s consumption
some believe there is one
others believe there are many
and more and more think
you live in a world where no gods exist
our world endures such ugliness
with deaths in the millions
from violence, cancer, abuse, war, starvation
and so many more atrocities
if a god or gods did exist
why would they allow
this fermentation of hideousness
to fester unchecked rather than abolish it
perhaps we live in a world where no gods exist
Or so you think.

I love your argument on why maybe we live in a world where no god exist.

Thanks, Mich. It’s a question amongst many that I don’t think we’ll ever figure out the answer.

The gap in the wall depicted in your chosen pic is what we try to explain – either the presence or absence of God.

Yeah, I can see that interpretation. For me though, I was drawn to the human and the spiritual never being able to touch, always being out of touch as well as the representation of the division between belief and reality.

Excellent take, Susi, and I think many ponder this every day.

Not an exact duplicate, but we both intended to convey the idea of God.
