Why Do I Believe? (Part One) Poem by Roxanne Dubarry
Why Do I Believe? (Part One)
Some people ask me
quite plainly
why do I believe in
God?
I quote no philosophy
nor the wisdom of the ages
so they tell me.
My faith is not based
upon scientific fact,
just myths and fables.
I failed miserably to
do my research, when
I mentioned the Bible,
my source lacked creditability.
Events and civilizations have helped
to develop humanity, but should
be left to history having no
relevance to contemporary society.
Most people just want the freedom
to determine their own destiny.
They want the freedom of their
own individuality.
But they are trapped by their
own conformity.
In short, I was told very plainly
that I believe in Christianity
because 'It makes me feel good.'
And they are very right indeed.
Interesting delineations of why and what you believe and I think we are all assured to our human right to have them without a need to justify or defend it to anyone.
