The Two Temperaments of Man (Free verse) by dougsoderstrom

The Two Temperaments of Man Two temperaments mold the mind of man, One motivates him to find the one true, exclusively predetermined path toward God. The other to engage in an eternal, never-ending search for Truth. While the one leads to an answer, an arrogant stance, a bold assurance of knowing something for sure, The other leads to questions…… an openness of mind, The faith to doubt…… a humbled heart. More than just a simple choice, a decision that one must make, It is the sine qua non of our existence as a human being, The very thing that we allow to take charge of our lives, That which will necessarily determine the character of our relationship before God.

It was probably the pig. Do porcupines make noises when you sit on them? You can be so poetic sometimes that it's hard to decipher. If you are asking why I find the poem intriguing, it is because the two sides of this issue claim the same advantages and accuse each other of the same defficiencies using different jargons.
