Dear Babylon,
I want a divorce. I am tired of trading my whole day for a small portion of your life blood, that green stuff we call money. I am tired of the poisons you put in my food, in my water, and in my sky. I am sickened by the enslavement your medical system enforces, and I seek to avoid it at all costs. Your worship of flesh sickens me, and I want no part of it. I am tired of you def...ining what I can wear, what I can and should eat, what I have for entertainment and what I can think. I am tired of your definition of beauty, which is as limited and stifled as your money flow. I have had enough of you defining how I spend my time, how I spend my money, how I spend my thoughts. No longer will you be able to provide input into who or what is valuable to me, and no longer will I be enslaved to your "benefits."
I have a new King, and one day He will make an end of you. Until then, consider this a severance of all partnerships, contracts, agreements I have made with you knowingly or that you have insidiously foisted upon me without my knowledge or consent. From my birth, born into your system of slavery, I have been under your tight supervision and control in every way. No more.
From now on and forever the King will help me to see and know and experience what is beautiful, what is valuable, what is worth my time, what is worth my energy, and what is worth my contemplation, and what is eternal. I will follow Him to the ends of the earth, to my dying day, and to life again in His Kingdom.

I will follow Him as I never followed you. You enslaved me and forced me and coerced me. He has my heart freely and completely and joyfully and willingly. There is only once thing certain here, and that is that humans must serve something. I have chosen this day whom I will serve.
Babylon, I divorce you. I divorce you. I divorce you.
Sincerely,
