Human Rights

History paints a cruel and atrocious picture of human failure. Unbelievable acts of hate leave a trail of pain, tears, and shame. Mankind has behaved like the animal kingdom in many respects. Acknowledgement has been granted for much of our human evils. Nevertheless, we must continue pursuing human rights with diligence. Religion, admittedly and unfortunately, has played a large and leading role. If the truth is told, religion, especially Christianity, is also a healing force. God is Loving and Good, entrusting his creatures to act in good faith and love. Harmony and unity require taking ownership, and not blaming others. Time is a friend to all who are willing to change and make amends. Selfish acts of greed and hunger for power are pathways to destruction. 120421PSCtest, Human Rights Poetry, Robert James Liguori. 3P
