God and HUMANITY: The Stage

We tend to speak of God in certain terms,
And some do understand while others don’t,
In conscientious hearts: belief confirms,
Alas, in those whose souls be closed: it won’t.

Some say that only fools shall trust in God,
With sureness same as those who do believe,
Yet simp’lest of percepts doth show it flawed,
And thee who cannot see is but naïve.

So if you dare explore, I do enjoin,
You wander solemn verses with free heart,
In search of such bejeweled and crucial coigne,
‘Tis found when hanging ‘round René Descartes.

So, settle in… from here, we do proceed,
And, in the end, I hope you will accede.

These four on “God and Humanity” are beautifully thought-provoking. They implore self-reflection. Well done!
