Random Thoughts - Examination of Faith

Neither anticipated that the cause of the conflict [slavery] might cease with, or even before, the conflict itself should cease.. each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding... both read the same Bible, and pray to the same God; and each invokes His aid against the other... it may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces.. but let us judge not that we be not judged... the prayers of both could not be answered.. that of neither has been answered fully...

the Almighty has His own purposes...

All ... religions show the same disparity between belief and practice, and each is safe till it tries to exclude the rest.. test each sect by its best or its worst as you will, by its high-water mark of virtue or its low-water mark of vice... but falsehood begins when you measure the ebb of any other religion against the flood-tide of your own..

Down with the Sickness

Black sun rays fall upon my soul
casting dark shadows
Causing it to become withered and grow cold
my skin starts pealing away
showing the real me in an ugly way...

Today, just the same
Tomorrow, just the same
Yesterday is gone, but the pain will never go away
The clock hands are ticking backwards it seems
things that have happened in the past seem to be coming back...

Driving the razor blades into my unholy flesh
leaving me here
naked and bare
striped away from all what makes me sane
now drowning in the sorrow of the black sun rays...
