Many examples about different ideas
People always want to take the easy path
Where better to start than with religion
These are destined to feel God’s wrath
They’ll tell you religion is the cause of wars
Far easier to believe God is made up
Refusing to see wars start for power
The power hungry have to be crushed
Advising on military and strategic matters
Discussing life and death like it’s a game
Opining about what our military should do
If they’d been there would they feel the same
Whining and complaining about everything
Saying government is to blame for their woes
Victims of their own willful ignorance
If they read the Constitution they would know
The bottom line here is intestinal fortitude
The uninitiated have too much to say
Our world would again be a better place
If these fools stopped chasing the easy way

A poem that speaks of the right way instead of the easy way. Well done
Thank you. You always seem to understand my thoughts. We both appear to study living, perhaps that makes us philosophers. Lol
You are most welcome. You realize that both philosophers and poets make no money
