Cannot Be Taught

*
Seth’s quantum physics promotes
infinite probabilities enlarging the
universe while sensory science
shrinks it to the suffocating small

The story of Christ is a morality play
illustrating life-giving ideas, not to be seen
as reality-confused rationality in virgin
births and risings from the dead

Metaphors about self-defeating behaviour
people of integrity appreciate the symbols
ignore childish religious debates
contravening natural laws

Religion in any culture can uplift or be
used to underpin power-struggles and
war, being neutral symbolic devices and
cosmic plays to be used as preferred

We are born with a predilection for high ideals
or the exploitation of people and things; we are
free to choose to follow natural inclination
or create a new, enchanting dream

We are free to choose which predetermined
settings we prefer, I always change green to
white and blue, set the dial to beautiful music
I am not more right than you

I respect all other choices, all should be free
to experiment with rational principles to
determine whether they like the con-
sequences their choices bring them

History has shown nobody can live with the result of
manipulation, exploitation and servitude, all things
subjugated rise up and destroy the exploiters,
yet everybody must experiment to find

The proof for themselves, it cannot be taught…
