Just One Stone

Is there any innocent and sin-free people out there?                                                                                                          If there is one, please spread the news and tell me where.                                                                                

The world has produced only one such person since creation.                                                                                 He was tried and condemned in the halls of injustice and crucified.


He once challenged a group of men to demonstrate their innocence.                                                                           The innocent man said to them, "He who is without sin, cast the first stone".                                                    That guilt ridden crowd of self-righteous hypocrites did not pick up one stone.
