Dogmatic Doctrine Can I kiss a Catholic or a Muslim or a Jew, A Buddhist or an Atheist, a Sikh or a Hindu? Can I share their faith with them and not condemn my soul, To eternal persecution in the Devil’s deepest hole? Can I offer love to those who are not always straight. Who’s love is shared with their own sex or either kind of mate? If so, am I a pervert who can’t pass through heaven’s gate, is it true that love can lead to hell as surely as can hate? Can I really lead a life rejecting all I find that meet the inner feelings that have formed within my mind? Is it true that I’ve no right to choose the things I want to do, but just accept I must conform to things that can’t be true? If this is so I’ll tell you, then this life is really hell, the Devil’s won already we are bound within his spell. But I’m sure that God Almighty is around for All Mankind, whatever path we follow or whatever love we find. Ivor G Davies The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last. |

Ivor, This is well done. The only thing I would change is to drop the second "a" in the line: "a Sikh or a Hindu?" Bobby |

Drauntz, Just speak my mind... Bobby, Maybe because you're dropping your H's - LOL (always tempted to put 'an' before H, but then that's not English sir! Thanks for the comments, Have Fun, Ivor |
