Attention! - To the Wondering Soul (Free verse) by darkhelmet10

The following is a brief message. Think before you act, Do your best at everything you do. Consider how others will react. For, I know the truth. Relax, breathe, things aren't so bad. We're all doing what we think we can, We're all confused, We're all human. For, I know the truth. There is no evil in this world, There are simply inner fires. There is simply greed, There are simply desires. For, I know the truth. We're all the same, We're all completly different. I speak out to you, my generation, Think before you act. For, I know the truth.

1. While God did not physically pick up a pen and write the bible it is said by God himself that he inspired it through his disciples. Jesus(who is the same person as God) said "these are my words" meaning the bible. And that whole five scholars theory is flawed, because those five all have different views and separate ideas of God or the world. The disciples who wrote Gods word were all on a common ground, they believed in God and gave up their lives to tell the masses about him. As a side note, if you believe that God is all knowing and is capable of everything than what makes you think that he would let something in the Bible that he did not condone.

2. God told Moses to go and destroy cities that were unholy, he even commanded Moses to kill the women and children because they themselves were also wicked. The children were rebellious, the women were impure and prostitutes, God even told him to kill the livestock. When I read this I was shocked, I could not understand why a loving God would kill innocent children. Well the point is they were not innocent, they were wicked and God knew when they grew up they would try and avenge their fathers by killing the Jews. God even said if you can find even one righteous person I will spare the city, and Moses could not. You say God does not advocate war?! We, America, are not even that harsh. We are trying with all our power to make sure that innocent civilians are not harmed, many of our own men have died trying to help Iraqâs citizens. And yes I do call my self a Christian, I am a fighter of evil(something people do not believe in anymore), I do not strive for war, but I know it is necessary. You believe that we should not have avenged out innocent civilians on 9-11? What would you do if I killed your family? would you press charges? Or would you just let it go? If I decided that I wanted to kill you, would you try and prevent it? or just wait for it to happen. You donât want us to attack Iraq because nothing has happened to you, I guarantee if it was someone you loved in those buildings that died you would be fronting this war with everything inside you. Nothing has touched your little world, your inside your house, something alot of people do not have. You can protest laws you dissagree with, somthing most people can not do. And most of all, you are free. Free to live the way you want. That is a privilege every human being should have. If you were living under tyranny would you want what we have? Our president doesnât spray chemical weapons on our towns, and watch as hundreds of women and children slowly and painfully die. Our government is here to protect us, and we, with the power and wealth that we have, owe it to the rest of the world, if willing, to free them.
