we all can see sinners casting stones so to speak 

on those that pretend to be all caring about the planet 

yet their humility lacks general understanding of humanity

where the basic rights of life are denied  

The truth suffers in the consequence of its betrayal the afflictions of this present world cannot come unforeseen Against them all let sound reason do battle let no imperial threats scare you do not be grieved at the laughter and mockery of your intimates nor at the condemnation of those who pretend to care for you and who put forward, as their most attractive bait to deceive under a pretence of giving good advice we all know when our Lord drew upon the sand Mercy spoke for those of us no longer blind we hope and pray that our children are gifted with a better future
