THE CULT OF ISAAC

We all know about Abraham, the great
religions emanating from his skull,
but what about Isaac, where is his world
taken into theological thought,

mulled over by the great philosophers
of the world, dissected and long discussed?
Isaac endured his god-thirsty father’s
knife and blood-fanatical intentions.

He was to be his father’s sacrifice.
What I propose is Isaac, his worship
and adoration, a cult of the son.

In the cult of Isaac, there will be no
worshipping of blood-lusting gods, only
children and their safety and our great love.
