No egoism is so insufferable as that of the Christian with regard to his soul.

Intolerance itself is a form of egoism, and to condemn egoism intolerantly is to share it.

The egoism which enters into our theories does not affect their sincerity; rather, the more our egoism is satisfied, the more robust is our belief.

Fundamental of Liar Chapter LXIII: Complimentary

Some regard it as an honor
Some regard it as a burden
Some regard it as a formality
Some regard it as a flattery
Some regard it as an improver
Some regard it as an insult

The Eternal Twins: Love And Hate

It consumes without regard
It shape without regard
It bends you to its will
We are helpless in its power

We look for it but it finds us
It devours without regard
It destroys without regard
It brought nations to its knees
And lifted its people

It gives power without regard
It enslaves without regard
We are but pebbles in its wake
When it overflows in us

And yet.... Its ugly twin holds
Power over it

It consumes without regard
It shapes without regard
It bends you to its will
We are helpless in its power....

Regard Me Or Not

Regard me or not,
Regard me or not but you I see,
Take me to heaven or hell but I see that your time judged me,
I know that my time gave me the meaning and all the essence that is all that I really need to have,
His love really regarded me or not I know that he loved me for the power of His work’s,
But in all my work’s I see the power of His work’s I know that they really made me see His power that was all the meaning that is all your love that saved all creation,
No, I must go on for I cannot tell of their soul but nobody know’s my soul,
For when you regard me or not I know your immutability made me alive and see the power of your work’s and in your love alone Iam all strong.

Regardless

It doesn't matter...
How you regard me.
Where you regard me
If you regard me.
Or why or even when,
I am regarded by you at all.
If neither one of us are sharing...
To acknowledge it!

Whenever I am home,
And feeling alone.
That is done...
When and if those moments arrive,
Regardless!
And...
Until those moods decided to leave...
There I am,
In total disregard.

Thus Christian humanism is as indispensable to the Christian way of life as Christian ethics and a Christian sociology.

False Chirp of a Quail

An obscure, immense of depths, open well
of desert quenching your thirst, soul's sort

Us, passengers of drought, our egos export
an attained flirt shout, false chirp of a quail

Your imposed upon laugh, my concern wry
Entered an odd world of whim, a pledge dry

No signature of opposites, on a wicked spell

My uppish egoism sense of evenness I abort
Your image of darken stills, in soul I import

I regard Christian and Jewish fundamentalism, and all other forms of fundamentalism, as the enemies of God - and I hope you'll quote me on that.

Sonnet: A ' Xian's Life

When problems seize a man upon the earth,
The cause is devils, nature, God or I;
The Christian has a dreary life since birth;
In all his strife, Jesus remains near-by!

Why blame someone for things going amiss?
A Christian life is full of misery;
Just don’t worry for stands besides Jesus;
“Take up your cross and follow me, ” said He!

The devils tempt a Christian soul often;
But Jesus assures him victory always;
The shadow of the Cross leads to Heaven;
A baptized soul on earth has sure D-days!

The Son of God, Jesus, forsakes me not;
Thro’ bloody price on Cross- That’s how I’ as bought!

Soul has an extra mileage

Soul and body: who depends on who?
Soul and body: who adds values to who?
Whom do you regard: soul or body?
Who is the cause of your actions?
Does soul departs for body decays?
Does body decays for soul departs?
Soles alone are ghosts; bodies alone are corpses.
Soul and body together gain values.
Must soul have an extra mileage?

I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness. We cannot get behind consciousness. Everything that we talk about, everything that we regard as existing,
postulates consciousness.

Just One Minute

Mind is very beautiful phenomenon,
It thinks what we want it to,
If something is sensed being negative,
It provides us the complete chain of how those things could be perceived of being negative,
This develops a fog of negativity and pathetic egoism,
And then the soul; So much child,
Can't balance the facts of positive and negative,
So take your chances and gush the water of truth in the mind,
Believe me...
It just takes a minute...

Thank God!

Thank God! I was not caught; he only.
It is nothing but selfishness.
Thank God! I got a child unlike her.
It is nothing but egoism.
