PROEM & POEM No. 81 - The Academic Bomb
---
While rightly describing 21st century AD societies (particularly this poet’s country), the 8th century BC prophet Isaiah composed (or not) the following assessment of the time and region, “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” However, as widely affected and deeply infected the modern world may be diagnosed, proportionately misunderstood are the causes for such effects.
Leaving traditional theological considerations to others, that is, any misguided morals or doctrines per lack of faith or confession, religious or spiritual paths are gravely undermined nonetheless by personal and/or collective worldviews lacking empirical evidences, or in brief, founding on misinformation as well lies. Eternal destiny may be assured (a matter between God and individual), however his/her existence on earth will be as consequentially miserable even devastating as those without faith and doctrine.
Plainly, American-Christians (per this poet’s familiarity and study) have embraced evil, darkness and those things bitter as most other countrymen, by so doing, disrespecting and disregarding others’ Peculiar Human Ability to Reason, inseparably the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent.

“How so?”, so go the retorts to thwart such assertions
Purporting the distinction, fitly, purposing the perception
Delusion per illusion by combining theology and polity
Conjuring Isms, contriving schisms to frivolous hostility

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
