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.

I don't want you to leave. I want you to post another leaving rant, storm off in a huff, then come back again, then post another poeme full of ellipses, then be mocked to the point of lunacy, then reply to all the abuse with "Your Friend, Doug" as you desperately try to rise above all the immaturity on this site, then have another breakdown, then post a leaving rant, then storm off in a huff, then come back again, then write a poeme about 'the cognitive dissonance which may well be an inherent part of trying to rationally justify why one who has lived a life of moral excellence, yet who is unsaved, "should be expected to" spend an eternity in Hell', then collapse in a giant shower of guff and pulped yams. And I want you to keep doing that. But that's merely for my own amusement, and perhaps not in your own best interest.

For pity's sake, doug: we both know I'm not trying to help you become a better poete. If you do become a better poete, then that is incidental. All I care about is issues.
