I am a Jesus believer, but I am not a church goer, handing money out and listening to a preacher is nice if that's your thing. But sometimes I really get where you are coming from. Especially with what's going on not only here in the U.S. but all over the world. Keep the faith, Mo. Hugs Charlie xoxo

Thank you Charlie. What he preached is so very ingrained in me that the state of our world today makes me so incredibly sad. Warm hugs to you! xomo

Maureen, yes it's interesting that the principles of religion often do not apply to life's practice. It's worthy of discussion and I hope this poem gets seen by many. I also hope many religious organizations that do good will contribute to making the world a better place rather than making people feel OK about destroying it. I left you another comment about Mars this morning. When the privileged get there, will they be disappointed they can't use their yachts before they starve to death? I wonder what Jesus would say about that.

There’s a line in a favourite The The song, “If the real Jesus Christ were to stand up today he’d be gunned down cold by the CIA”, though maybe now more likely just have his papers taken away and be put in a cage. Thank you getting me! xomo

In all my life and travels, I have never met one, not a single person identifying as Christian, who knows the teachings and texts, studied all the books and history, the bible is one book of many, nor acted in any way by what they preach, this might explain why so many love Trump and Zionism.

Thank you Arthur, for understanding my intention with this piece. I no longer identify as a christian for that reason, but prefer to practice what he preached in my everyday life, even if that does make me a woke libtard snowflake ya da ya da ya da ;), xomo

To abort Jesus, is to abort salvation and freedom. To give the devil life, indeed Christ did, and He had it all, heaven’s splendor but he wanted God’s throne. He can’t have it so he looks to destroy God’s creation. God lets us see what happens and in the end we will see the whole picture.

Thank you Kim, for a literal explanation. Graciously, please help me understand how the teachings of Jesus have been interpreted in such a matter as to divide, to sow hate, I was taught His teachings and I honestly do not understand. xomo
