Hardly So

Gary Edward Geraci

Hardly So

 

We choose life, to make and bring home a human baby,

Knowing full well that there will be both joy and sorrow.

Paradoxical? Contradictory? A blow to our rational nature of body and soul?

Hardly so.

 

We choose to preserve creation, adopting

A small puppy,

Knowing full well that there will be both joy and sorrow.

Paradoxical? Contradictory? A blow to our rational nature of body and soul?

Hardly so.

 

He chooses to create the Angels, immaterial, free creatures to govern the universe,

Knowing full well that some will choose to self serve rather than serve Him.

Paradoxical? Contradictory? A blow to His Divine Omnipotence to allow paths where good may come from evil?

Hardly so.

 

He chooses to create mankind, material, free creatures to govern their world,

Knowing full well that some will choose to self serve rather than serve Him.

Paradoxical? Contradictory? A blow to His Divine Omnipotence to allow paths where good may come from evil?

Hardly so.
