Government
All governments are bad
outside of God's order of things.
Why is it we cannot learn
to get along with each other?
Because we are greedy, self-centered,
evil people.
We all want power like God,
but we are incapable of being in charge.
If we could get along without wars
and learn how to govern ourselves,
this world could last forever.
Why do we want what our neighbors have?
We could share.
There could be enough for everyone
without destroying anything
if we weren't so greedy, power hungry
and lived by God's rules.
The way we are living now
this world will not exist in a few years
nor will we.
