Inspired by, and respoken with gratitude becoming, Spenser's "Cantos of Mutabilitie"

All relationships steadfast monotheistic become stagnant hate And change becomes rightly and left weighed swayed animation accelerated and delayed panentheistic. Yet we are not entirely changed from our first health wealthy estate, transubstantiating positive by our changed circumference our becoming does dilate and integrate, regenerate And, returning to our selves at co-related length and width and depth again each day through night Do awake to working play our cooperative perfection as if by compassion's fate Inward, outward undulate.

Monotheism doesn't allow for the notion that we are our own gods, so I guess it does in fact produce hatred in the creature. Interesting way to state that - I guess Paul wrote in Romans 1 that 'they exchanged the truth about God for a lie', and 'became ... haters of God'.
