Starward commented on: SPOONFEEDING THE RELIGION by georgeschaefer 4 years 25 weeks ago
My great great grandfather: My great great grandfather was one of those charlatan preachers, and the damage he did to our family is still resonating.  He was so mean that no local church wanted him as their pastor.  The single photograph I have of him, a very primitive photograph from the early 20th century, depicts an old man glaring at the camera as if to call a curse down on the viewer.    I became so tired of the spoonfeeding of religion by charlatan preachers, that I abandoned the religious practices of my spouse and her family to become a convert to the Orthodox Church.  No one there asks me, "Have you found Jay-zus," and, "How much d'you bawl?"  And I do not mention this to evangelize; only to say what my experience has been.    The poem conveys a lot of profound wisdom and experience, and I applaud the verse form by which you present it.

I am grateful: Your comment so sweet was music to my ears. Visiting old bring life back into it from a different view. Take pen to paper and write about what you see, feel, what inspire you, write what you want and what you desire. This and only this is why I write nothing more. So Lady A thank you for your warm welcomed and touching message. I do not get comments to often.   Totally & Completely Gratefully Vix
