Genes And Memes Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Victors write history and stand as right.
Christianity overpowered Manichaeim,
The Persian dualism - Good and Evil.
Islam overpowered Sassanid Empire.

Religion is pest and human is host.
It multiplies in the host and infects hosts.
It cares little about the hosts' condition
And sometimes weaken the hosts or kill them.

Religion make hosts ready to lay their lives
In defending it or propagating it.
Sometimes it turn virus and cripple men,
Who succumb to the cultural injuries.

Organic evolution is based
On the replication of the genes.
Cultural evolution is based
On the replication of the memes.
