Socrates did not believe in the Athenian gods.
for that he was hounded and scorned by the Athenian gods’ believers.
Twenty five centuries later, those who believe in the American gods
Hound and scorn those who don’t believe in the American gods.
Socrates was condemned to death, he chose to drink hemlock,
My guess is he didnt have a handgun to shoot himself in the head
The American gods are a jealous bunch of gods, but, oddly, generous —
They have guns and will happily shoot you, saving you the trouble
The chief god smiles, says you were stupid not to believe, gathers prizes
We're lucky to have such a god, not having to think anymore, we’re free
