It is important for us to deny God
To deny the conventional theist, monotheistic God
Because only in this way
Can we be proven wrong
So to be fully cleansed of all our mental idols
And begin to find God instead in the nearest and most
natural of ways
To find God immediately
Where our universe and our experiences blink
Where our bodies and our minds make us humanly one
Where our flesh and our faith truly incarnate a divine
spirit
We must deny God beyond the stars
So to grasp God at our finger tips
We must berate God in the throes of ecstasy
So to breathe God in all our mundane moments
For the denial of God
Is the beginning of wisdom
How else but in this way
Can such loss become the very greatest of what we fear
It is important for us to deny God
For only in this way can we
in deed find, as Tillich said, God above God.
