More about the book

Through a collection of satirical poems, the author critiques the absurdities of cultural interpretations of "Holy Writ." By adopting the voices of biblical figures and contemporary religious figures, he explores themes of folly, enlightenment, and the struggle between reason and belief. The work aims to illuminate the dangers of blind faith in an era marked by extremism, suggesting that satire serves as a vital tool for communication and understanding amidst ignorance. Ultimately, it seeks to provoke thought and challenge the status quo through humor.
