Evidence
~~~
Faith is usually reserved
For believing without proof
But evidence a necessity
To call something the truth
~~~
To overcome mob mentality
The rule of law is set in facts
Proof is given to what is claimed
What conspiracies often lack
~~~
I will not question your ‘God’
That is a matter of personal faith
But do not question my intelligence
And with lies, the truth replace
~~~
Show me where this wrong exists
And I will stand with you in the fight
I still choose to use evidence
To find what I believe is right
~~~

AMEN!!!!
Thanks sis! Love you like no other!
I like the poem very much. I read aloud and then read aloud again. 🙂
“Show me where this wrong exists”
I think you will just get a lot of hem and hawing.
Thank you for reading and commenting. I appreciate your support and agree with your assumption.
yes, use both your heart and your brain.
Very forthright, very upright. You say it well, Brad. Beautiful truth beautifully written to reinforce the truth.
“But do not question my intelligence
And with lies, the truth replace”
Oh, well, from lies to innuendos to the evil disguised in sweet words. What can I say?
Great work Brad.
Huge hugs to you.

Thank you, dear Poetess! Much love to you! 🌹
it seems like it is getting harder and harder to get at the truth…
Oddly enough, we do seem to know when we are not hearing it….
yes, we may know that something is not true, but still not be sure what is true…
“Faith is usually reserved
For believing without proof”
Your beliefs beautifully expressed dearest Brad.
Even Jesus agreed with you.
John 20: 29
Jesus saith unto him, Because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
Sending you love, hugs and ladybugs carrying lavender and jasmine for tea or just because.
Love Jonikins
That makes too much sense, Brad. Give me politicians with principals over their party any day of the week. Instead, we’re left with, “What are my latest poll numbers?”
It is a sad illustration of our democracy….Thanks for the support Pete!
Bravo! Great work my friend and amen to that!
