I meet many people.
I treat them equal.
I can harvest grain the middle age way.
I always go on, I never stay.
I can't die.
Some believe I can fly.
Most people don't like me.
And thus try to fight me.
Most people don't want me to touch them.
Some mad people want me to rush them.
There is no proof that I exist.
But what I do can't be dismissed.

The poem is nice. if you remove the religious part and replace it with the possibility that people may find a way to avoid dying, i'd agree with it.

Oh, I wasn't asking you to agree with it! I don't think you could remove the religion from Donne's "Holy Sonnets" without wrecking them, though; one just has to cope with it (or, according to taste, not).

I think you might be
The Grim Reaper (Angel of Death)
I meet many people.
I treat them equal.
Many people die every day, death comes equally for all
I can harvest grain the middle age way.
The Reaper is often depicted as holding a large scythe.
I always go on, I never stay.
I can't die.
Death itself cannot die.
Some believe I can fly.
According to the Midrash, the Angel of Death was created by God on the first day. His dwelling is in heaven, whence he reaches earth in eight flights
Most People don't like me.
Not many people want to die (meet the reaper)
And thus try to fight me.
Many will try to avoid death for as long as possible
Most people don't want me to touch them.
Some mad people want me to rush them.
Not sure but perhaps those with a deathwish.
There is no proof that I exist.
This is just a personification based on belief.
But what I do cant be dismissed.

You are Time.
I meet many people.
Time meets everyone, every time
I treat them equal.
Time never act differently with anyone.
I can harvest grain the middle age way.
Do not know. Actually, do not understood what that mean.
I always go on, I never stay.
Obviously; isn't it?
I can't die.
Time never start and never it does end. In other words, it never born and never die. By the way, quantum physics does not agree with me. It says, time was created while big bang; before that, there was no time. Also that time will end when entire universe will again convert in small dot of energy. Anyway, we are not discussing physics here.
Some believe I can fly.
Time flies so quickly when we are happy, with loved ones.
Most people don't like me.
Those who are in bad conditions, difficulties do not like current time. They want it to be passed quickly.
And thus try to fight me.
As said above, they do not like it. They try hard (fight) to get out of bad times.
Most people don't want me to touch them.
Age? Most people like to live young (or kid) all the time.
Some mad people want me to rush them.
Not sure but some people like to grow up quickly. Or when in bad time, people want good time should come quickly.
There is no proof that I exist.
Time is not visible, not touchable, not smell-able. One cannot prove the existence of time. Physics does; but again, we are not discussing in terms of physics.
But what I do can't be dismissed.
Though we cannot prove its existence, we see the incidents happening around us and the history. We cannot dismiss these things and those prove the existence of time.

Who am I?
You are Vim.
I meet many people.
Vim is preinstalled on many distributions and enjoys a large popularity.
I treat them equal.
Vim starts out on the same screen for every user.
I can harvest grain the middle age way.
VIM is the name of a commercial auger producer: https://www.equipmenttrader.com/Farming-Equipment/Vim-Grain-Auger-For-Sale/search-results?make=VIM%7C765326122&category=Grain%20Auger%7C2006720.
I always go on, I never stay.
Vim in insert mode is able to add newlines forever, and sometimes when window switching back to vim it will shift the lines in the view.
I can't die.
Many users have a hard time quitting vim, so much that it's a bit of a meme and there are specific guides on how to quit it: https://itsfoss.com/how-to-exit-vim/
Some believe I can fly.
Vim Airline is a very popular plugin: https://github.com/vim-airline/vim-airline.
Most people don't like me.
Most people don't know every Vim command and can struggle to do basic things like find/replace or multi-cursor editing, or even copying/pasting.
And thus try to fight me.
Many users resort to quitting their terminal or restarting their computer to get out of vim.
Most people don't want me to touch them.
Windows is the most popular operating system, and Vim isn't preinstalled on it.
Some mad people want me to rush them.
Some masochistic users enjoy the difficulty of vim, and specifically like to struggle to use it, as a badge of honor.
There is no proof that I exist.
Software isn't tangible.
But what I do can't be dismissed.
Vim is the tool of choice for many top-notch programmers, who would be less productive without it.

There is no proof that I exist.
Time is not visible, not touchable, not smell-able. One cannot prove the existence of time. Physics does; but again, we are not discussing in terms of physics.
But what I do can't be dismissed.
Though we cannot prove its existence, we see the incidents happening around us and the history. We cannot dismiss these things and those prove the existence of time.

Very good. I actually didnt think of time as an answer, but I'd definitely accept it the way you presented it. Too bad one can just accept one answer. +1 anyway.

Who am I?
You are Time.
I meet many people.
Time meets everyone, every time
I treat them equal.
Time never act differently with anyone.
I can harvest grain the middle age way.
Do not know. Actually, do not understood what that mean.
I always go on, I never stay.
Obviously; isn't it?
I can't die.
Time never start and never it does end. In other words, it never born and never die. By the way, quantum physics does not agree with me. It says, time was created while big bang; before that, there was no time. Also that time will end when entire universe will again convert in small dot of energy. Anyway, we are not discussing physics here.
Some believe I can fly.
Time flies so quickly when we are happy, with loved ones.
Most people don't like me.
Those who are in bad conditions, difficulties do not like current time. They want it to be passed quickly.
And thus try to fight me.
As said above, they do not like it. They try hard (fight) to get out of bad times.
Most people don't want me to touch them.
Age? Most people like to live young (or kid) all the time.
Some mad people want me to rush them.
Not sure but some people like to grow up quickly. Or when in bad time, people want good time should come quickly.
There is no proof that I exist.

Who am I?
You are Vim.
I meet many people.
Vim is preinstalled on many distributions and enjoys a large popularity.
I treat them equal.
Vim starts out on the same screen for every user.
I can harvest grain the middle age way.
VIM is the name of a commercial auger producer: https://www.equipmenttrader.com/Farming-Equipment/Vim-Grain-Auger-For-Sale/search-results?make=VIM%7C765326122&category=Grain%20Auger%7C2006720.
I always go on, I never stay.
Vim in insert mode is able to add newlines forever, and sometimes when window switching back to vim it will shift the lines in the view.
I can't die.
Many users have a hard time quitting vim, so much that it's a bit of a meme and there are specific guides on how to quit it: https://itsfoss.com/how-to-exit-vim/
Some believe I can fly.
Vim Airline is a very popular plugin: https://github.com/vim-airline/vim-airline.
Most people don't like me.
Most people don't know every Vim command and can struggle to do basic things like find/replace or multi-cursor editing, or even copying/pasting.
And thus try to fight me.
Many users resort to quitting their terminal or restarting their computer to get out of vim.
Most people don't want me to touch them.
Windows is the most popular operating system, and Vim isn't preinstalled on it.
Some mad people want me to rush them.
Some masochistic users enjoy the difficulty of vim, and specifically like to struggle to use it, as a badge of honor.
There is no proof that I exist.
Software isn't tangible.
But what I do can't be dismissed.
Vim is the tool of choice for many top-notch programmers, who would be less productive without it.

The poem is nice. if you remove the religious part and replace it with the possibility that people may find a way to avoid dying, i'd agree with it.

Oh, I wasn't asking you to agree with it! I don't think you could remove the religion from Donne's "Holy Sonnets" without wrecking them, though; one just has to cope with it (or, according to taste, not).
