Screen Saver

Your religion is a screen saver.
It is the show you play, and no one argues against it.
It is amazing and beautiful. Anything like this
Perhaps should be called a miracle.
I’m sorry, but I long for interaction.
I want to move the mouse and see
What you can really do,
What gifts are really yours to give?
But I can’t find any way to stop this show.
If only you could know that what you have inside
Is more important to me than all the beautiful colors
And motions that are all you allow us to see.
What beauty there must be inside to create this,
But we will never know.
What an ironic pity,
What you want most is for all of us to be saved…
And you only save your screen.

John H. Bidwell

Sometimes I wish we were all blind, but then we couldn't see the beauty of the natural world and decipher it's teachings. That is the duality of this world, and of the cyber-world that we've created...

Great message, using the "modern" world... using the same theme, we can let people in if we have strong sense of security and we trust in our Provider, we'll use ad-aware and spy-bot to delete the useless junk, hit enter and let everyone see the beauty and knowledge hidden inside...

John,

BAM!!!!!!!! Thank you, sir, for speaking truth. Let's see the actions behind the beautiful colors (works?) and see what lies underneath...or is it all for show?

EXCELLENT thought provoking write--well done!!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :)
