Texas size cross

Religion means splitting, and schisms and sects,

Perhaps inquisitions (which no one expects)

It’s in-group and out-group in sanctified form

Where “us versus them” is accepted as norm

Believers may gather as sisters and brothers

But often to join in a fight against others

So when did it change? When did Christians unite?

When did so many sects come together to fight?

It’s the strange sort of bedfellows politics makes

When the Truest of Christians align with the fakes

All good politicians, like God, will take notes—

And it’s all about winning. It’s all about votes.
