For he that is not against us is on our part. — Mark 9:40 (KJV)He that is not with me is against me … — Matthew 12:30 (KJV)
it would be heaven on earth.
… UN-less they pretended and this deceit
was intended to hide their mocking and mirth
at our beliefs, our righteous ways,
of the goodness in us inherent.
If they, instead of nodding their heads,
in private espoused viewpoints aberrant,
opposing what we KNOW is true,
secretly scheming and plotting
the overthrow of the status quo,
claiming — inanely! — it's actually rotten
from deep within, from some ancient “sin”
which, were it true, we'd wish forgotten.
Who can we turn to, who can we trust,
who, truly, is on our side?
Can we keep faith with those who “agree”?
How can we know they are not lying?
Are they all in the enemy's thrall?
Could be they are. We'd best kill them all.
