Questions of faith

 

If Manu and Satarupa were of the same mould,
Aren’t we all of the same race?

If Adam and Eve were the first,
Are we all products of adultery and incest?

If God created man in his image,
Which image is reflective of him?

The atheist, agnostic and the Satanist,
Where do they go after death?

Of the seven odd billion people in the world,
Whose prayer is answered first?

If being vegan enriches the soul,
Does the meat-eater end up with no soul?

If all religions lead to salvation,
Can I follow a couple to shorten the journey?
