Poems and Thoughts    by Frank Maurer

Humanism. Religion reigns supreme throughout the world. Whose god is stronger, more benevolent, more just? We also feel free to kill and conquer to ensure the survival of our philosophy. "That group does not have our saviour in their lives And we need to involve ourselves in their lives To enlighten them to comprehend our text of truth!" What encourages people to be obligated to conquer minds? To convince that their belief is definitely the way to a truly free death, To allow one to slip into the final level of supreme existence? But there is another way to enlightenment: The love and respect of all life around us; Understanding that there was no miraculous, godly creation, But rather an evolutionary struggle of adaptation-- To fit into the great mosaic of life, To survive successfully and replicate To reach a positive reproductive level. That is the basis of all life on our planet of life-- Oh, and nothing more is needed for all this incredible productivity! Frank Maurer 25 June 2023 1850 Hours.
