Limerick For A Startled Atheist Poem by Danny Draper

Limerick For A Startled Atheist

Rating: 5.0


An atheist secular humanist
Preferred proof to faith its antithesis,
When shocked the poor sod,
Would exclaim, 'Oh my non-god! '
Invoking a greater empirical connectedness.

I don't use this often but lol, this brought a rich smile on my face, as a fence sitter on matters of the divine and spiritual I would have to profane Oh my don't know, but this rolls off well to.

As Diana has rightly put it, the expression 'Oh my non god' doesn't easily glide down our tongue! After reading a series of 'dry' and weighty philosophical poems, this has brought a smile! !
