You thought barbarians no longer
existed?
Then think again, for witnesses say
That a man was stoned to death in
Jamaica--
Yes, STONED to DEATH because he
was gay.
Terrorists in Iraq push men from
towers
For the same reason--as a crowd
watches!
Such actions bring hopes of human
Love and compassion down a few
notches.
Women are stoned for alleged
adultery.
People are crucified or burned
alive.
Beheadings, too, add to the horror.
Reason and sense have taken
a dive.
Regarding the many beliefs in the
world,
Those that are founded on
ignorance and fear
And prove to be cruel and hateful
show us
That we have a real problem here.
Conscientious and reasonable
seekers
Who see deep truths earnestly
advise
That when we approach the ancient
scriptures,
We view them through 21st century
eyes.
