Ventriloquist Doll, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
Most have had
Their parents hands
Up their back
To young to critically think.
Conformation bias
Set up by contitions
They swallow tall tales
Handed to them by their parents
If born in Tibet
Tis a safe bet
A Buddhist
You'd most likely be
From Biloxi to Baltimore
Montana to Miami
Far more likely
A sect of Christianity
Just as with
Antiquity
Greek or Roman
Apollo or Zues you'd believe
If you lived under Tut
You'd look up above
Thinking the sun god Ra
Was moving that orange ball
It is all the same
In our species history
Most don't want to face
They are a ventriloquist's doll
