Paris Summit On Climate Change
God,
In His infinite wisdom said:*
“Let there be light”
Then
He went on to create this spectacular world
For us to delight!
Man,
In his infinite "stupidity"** retorted:
“ Let there be darkness”
Then
He was set to destroy this marvelous world
With his mind's dim-witted starkness!
Now,
Man has the horrible consequence of his
Abominable crime to face
That no other is than the obliteration of
Self-centred human race!

*Genesis, 1:3
**“Albert Einstein said: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.”
*** Although I do not post these days I wish to repeat what I have said before for it is important for all of us to ponder, along with the rest of the world. In some cities, as Beijing today, one cannot see more than ten meters because of pollution. I know for I have passed seven months there.
