THE WORLD IS NOT YET READY TO HEAR THE TRUTH ABOUT RELIGION

-


In the quiet whispers of the night,
Amidst the shadows cast by flickering streetlights,
There lies a truth that many fear to see,
A truth that's waiting to be set free.

For too long, we've been blinded by lies,
Cloaked in the guise of religious disguise.
But behind the veils of dogma and creed,
Lies a reality that we desperately need.

The world isn't ready to hear,
How false religion feeds on fear,
How it preaches love but sows hate,
How it divides us, leaving us to our fate.

We're told to bow before the altar of faith,
To obey without question, to never debate.
But what if I told you that the truth lies within,
That salvation isn't found in the words of men?

Religion has become a tool of control,
A means to manipulate and extol.
But true spirituality is a journey within,
A quest for truth, free from sin.

We're taught to fear the wrath of a vengeful god,
To atone for our sins with bloodied rod.
But what if I told you that love is the key,
That redemption comes from setting our spirits free?

The world isn't ready to hear,
How false prophets prey on our fear,
How they profit from our pain,
How they promise salvation in vain.

We're told to follow blindly, to never question,
To accept our fate without objection.
But what if I told you that we hold the power,
To transcend our chains and rise like a tower?

Religion has become a prison for the soul,
A cage that stifles, a weight that takes its toll.
But true liberation comes from breaking free,
From casting aside the chains that bind you and me.

The world isn't ready to hear,
How false doctrine fills us with fear,
How it blinds us to our own divinity,
How it robs us of our humanity.

But the truth cannot be silenced forever,
It waits in the shadows, patient and clever.
For one day, the world will open its eyes,
And see through the veil of religious lies.

So let us speak the truth, bold and clear,
Let us banish the shadows of doubt and fear.
For the world may not be ready to hear,
But the time for truth is drawing near.

The Theatre of Absurdity

There’s a certain je ne sais quoi about our 13th Parliament that compels one to classify it not as an institution of serious national governance but rather a grand theatrical stage.  It is the ultimate black comedy, where the line between reality and farce has not only blurred but been trampled on, danced upon, and thrown into a gully somewhere along Mombasa Road. The latest act? Oh, nothing serious, just the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, served up on a silver platter as the country watches in half-hearted disbelief. But let me not spoil the plot too early; this is but one scene in a much larger production—one that involves auctioning airports, police abductions, the NHIF/SHIF circus, and some truly absurd laws that, if they weren’t real, would surely be an exaggerated script penned by an over-caffeinated playwright. Now, I’m no fan of spoilers, but here’s a quick sneak peek into the current parliamentary blockbuster. The story revolves around the sudden push to...

Beyond Memorials

As patriotic Kenyan citizens, June 25th is etched into our collective conscience as a symbol of pain, defiance, and awakening. It marks the day a generation stood up and some never returned home. Young Kenyans blood watered the roots of a tree of justice, dignity, and freedom that are yet to see bloom. Tomorrow, as we mark that dark day's first anniversary, there is a conversation unwinding:  What exactly is this day about?  Is it a memorial or a protest?  Is it a call for justice or a chaotic display of conflicting interests? These questions are not new and they are not unwelcome. In fact, they reflect a nation beginning to interrogate the soul of its resistance. One comrade, a seasoned human rights defender, is questioning us:  Where are the clear demands?  Who are the institutions targeted?  Could this be a hijacked moment, one that benefits ‘carrier activists,’ tribal gatekeepers, and political opportunists? This is a fair concern. After a...

14 Years of Katiba Madness: A Look at the Hits and Misses of Kenya’s Successive Regimes

_It’s been 14 years since we got a second Constitution since independence, and what a rollercoaster ride it’s been! From Mwai Kibaki’s ekonomia (economy) promises, to Uhuru Kenyatta’s Jubilee of wonder, and now to William Ruto’s hustler mania, let’s take a stroll down memory lane. And oh, fasten your seat belts, because this ride is anything but smooth!_ Let’s start with President Kibaki. The man who, upon receiving the baton of leadership, turned around and handed Kenyan children the golden ticket: Free Primary Education. The joy in the villages was like discovering that you had accidentally planted a money tree in your backyard. Mamas celebrated, Mambuyu were ecstatic, and watoi… well, kids just realized they had no more excuses to skip school. Thanks to Kibaki, classrooms were overflowing with students like matatus at Kencom during rush hour. But the free education program wasn’t without its quirks. Schools went from half-empty to overflowing like Mthurwa market on a Saturday mornin...
