Where Terrorism Is Bred Poem by Eddie Roa
Where Terrorism Is Bred
The zeal of the crusades
Persists resolutely to this day
Shackling the tractable faithful and
Hounding the wretched infidels
Missions more impassioned than ever
In fulfilling their avowed vision for all
Insistence rather than tolerance and suasion
Contrary beliefs and rights repressed
Other faiths fight back with fanatic fervor
Striking with flaming swords the unbeliever
The whiter the flash the redder the carnage
The louder the blast the more terror sown
Death to the cohorts bearing the cross
Sowing terror is ruthless intolerance, but,
Saint George and Michael Archangel delivering
Fire and brimstone to the heathen yet another
a sequel of opposing religious dogmata...untimely death of many. history should serve as our mirror but we never learn.

Many of our present ills stem from religious intolerance. What is unfortunate are the various interpretations of the basic tenets of the major religions. Some Christian and Islam sub cults are militant and fanatical because of misguided interpretations. Catholicism is a stern and disciplined form of Christianity which does not allow for individual takeouts of the Holy Words unlike some major Christian groups interpret the bible as they please, often to their convenience. This is true to other religions.
