We're All Equal

We must never forget that we're human beings, above all. We're God's children, all equal in his eyes. We need to treat each other with the utmost respect and dignity. We need to learn how to peacefully co-exist. Notwithstanding our deity of worship - Whether you call God just that, God, or Allah, or El-Shaddai, or Bhagwan. Notwithstanding the language we speak, or the accent of our speech, domestic or foreign. Notwithstanding our politics - Democrat, Republican, or Independent, or even party-free. Notwithstanding our race - White, Black, Hispanic, Asian; whether you check "Other" on application forms. Notwithstanding our religion - Catholicism, Judaism, Hinduism, Mormonism, Buddhism, Islam, and so on. Notwithstanding our culture, belief system, financial status, sexual orientation, or how we dress. Whether we're believer or atheist. Notwithstanding the side of the railroad track we hail from... We must never forget that we're human beings, above all. We're God's children, all equal in his eyes We need to treat each other with the utmost respect and dignity. We need to learn how to peacefully co-exist. In the final analysis, we are all equal! Opinion Poetry Contest Sponsored by Kai Michael Neumann Date Written: 06/23/2020
