Never speak ill of the deceased by God's followers 'tis said <br />But God doesn't judge the living he judges the dead <br />And that his followers only judge the living does seem a bit odd <br />So who should we believe his flock or their God. <br /> <br />The teachings of theologians doesn't sound very clear <br />I am getting a lot of mixed messages here <br />The God they believe in and to whom they do pray <br />Than them looks at life in a different way. <br /> <br />The God they believe in tells them not to judge <br />And against those they dislike not to hold a grudge <br />And their grudges they nurture till the day they die <br />But then show me the one who once never did lie. <br /> <br />When God says judge not and thou shalt not be judged his followers him do not heed <br />Yet we reap our bad crops when we sow our bad seed <br />Between the teachings of God and the actions of his followers great differences i see <br />This all seems so very confusing to me. <br /> <br />You do not have the right to judge their God to them say <br />But they twist his thinking to suit their own way <br />Well versed in their religions their bibles they've read <br />But they judge the living and their God judges the dead.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mixed-messages-2/
