What
do you
believe
and why
do you
believe it?
Our world
has shaped
who we are
physically and
spiritually.
We
are different
colors,
speak different
languages
and have
different
gods
based on where
we were born.
The accident
of birth,
location and
topography
determined who
we are.
Our differences
caused us to
war.
Humanity’s
social evolution
is what we
must see,
the frictions
of difference
slowly
beginning to fade.
Humans
being human
to each other
is how we
must go.
Humanism
beginning to grow.
Differences in beliefs
can be poison
to our cause.
My religion
is better
than your religion
is juvenile
at best.
Wars and mass murders
is what we
receive
when this is how
we perceive.
Spirituality
is important
to the human soul,
it nourishes
our existence
keeps us balanced
in so many ways.
Would the
Great Maker
be displeased
if our philosophy
was to live
a spiritual life
connected to Gaia
respecting
who we are
and each other;
living the
golden rule
in harmony?
Somehow,
I think not.
