Wrote this out of boredom, so it's rather short. But it's a decent read. Sounded okay in my head, anyway.

God.

Such a controversial figure. Involved in so many religions.

Judaism. Christianity. Islam. They all surround themselves around the idea that something greater awaits the faithful of humanity. That the universe revolves around a single omnipotent being.

They say that if you remain faithful and true to God, your soul will transcend to a greater plain of reality called Heaven. That your soul will be accepted into this graceful paradise, where happiness thrives.

They have you believe that Hell awaits the unfaithful. The evildoers. The sinful. If you do not repent your sins and beg forgiveness from God, your soul will burn eternally in the fires of the Underworld.

All you have to do is believe.

But think about this: what have we done to deserve the compassion of God?

We’ve gone against every rule that the foundation of religion rests upon. Every day, people are killed. Every day, people are robbed. We sin day after day after day. And yet we believe that if we pray, if we repent, then the gates of Heaven will eagerly greet us.

You can recite the Bible, pray to God, repent, bless your home; you can do everything to display your belief.

But you cannot run away from the fact that we don’t deserve to go to Heaven.

We are not His children. We are a failed experiment. He doesn’t love us.

You may believe in Him.

But He stopped believing in us long ago.
