Maybe This is A Rant Maybe It's Just Straight Talk

 

“Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit". (Jesus) I'm old, tired, sick and disgusted. So, I'll just get right to the point. Humanities fruit is sack cloth and ashes. Our strongest desire has always been for the forbidden fruit. What we have no right to is what we most desire. This uncontrollable evil desire leads to murder, wars, genocides, rapes, pillages and plunders. Religion has found ways to tone down our greed. The most powerful way being fear. Philosophy has proposed many a Utopian Dream. But as they are based upon the silly premise that humans are capable of living together in peace after being trained up, they have always failed to produce a sweet and delicious fruit. I'm afraid that I agree with Jesus, some things never change. The poor will aways be with us and so, every evil under the sun will always be with us. Still and all, knowing that I shall fail, I'll keep on keeping on about the possibility, however remote, that Jesus just might have been wrong and one day we will no longer have the poor and all the evil that comes with poverty with us.

A mindless rant or straight talk? You decide.

Still and all, knowing that I shall fail, I'll keep on keeping on about the possibility, however remote, that Jesus just might have been wrong and one day we will no longer be slaves to improper desire.
