Contritely Contradict

I feel the spirit of humanity within the collective beat of Man's heart. Theologically, Man's soul is an intangible eternal counterpart. I sense Man's struggle to be civilized, but the animal within can't be tamed. Evil is a corruptive influence that schemes for control but is never named. I fear the shared brutality of Man and the pain He is willing to inflict. Despite Man's construct of God, He believes it's His right to contritely contradict. I see humanity outside the box, where spirituality is achieved. The potential for Faith's accomplishments is more than Man initially believed.
