Preserved from a Flamewar

Personally,
I'd prefer
that the threads of hate
in Christianity
and in Islam
that want folks dead
died out
and reasonable people
in both faiths
were dominant
because
killing
and hating
was
never really
what either religion
was supposed
to be
about.

And it's sad
and funny
to me
that Christians turn to hate
'cause so has Islam
and Islam
turns to hate
'cause so Christians have done.

If you have any faith
I wonder
who you think
the architect of that
might be.

I don't believe
that there's a Devil.
So I'd go
myself
with "that evil
in people
that is farthest from Grace."
