  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I wrote this from the point of view of "Deception." This is one of my few poems. Most of what I write are song lyrics, which are more like inconsistent poems. Anyway, here goes.

Deception
My name is Deception,
The Warper of Perception.
I got a home in U.S.A.
Where I'm welcomed everyday.
I make so much money,
It's not even funny.
Souls, also, I've claimed,
And God's temple I've defamed.
You better watch out.
I'll find you, no doubt.
I am everywhere,
Pervaded through the air.
You are blind to me,
And I can clearly see
That you don't have a clue
That I'm controlling you.
Fear me, puny man,
For I'll do all that I can
To lead you astray
And to make you obey
My every desire.
I'll bring you to the fire
Of the pit of Hell
Where many great men fell.
You cannot defeat,
Never will you beat,
My incredible might
Without God's guiding light.
