Because you learned it that way in school?
Because this is still common in this country?
Because the believers seem to still have the majority?
Because you do not worry too much about your faith?
Then I answered:
You shalt know why I believe:
I believe because I can not believe
that only lies and violence
have the last word,
that people must live
in strife against each other,
that ultimately everything is meaningless.
I believe because I do not think
it is all coincidence.
Because I believe
that love keeps me alive.
Because I believe that there
is one who knows the meaning of everything.
