Eat A Sandwich (Villanelle)
eat a sandwich at Chick fil a
tell yourself God’s on your side
bring up children the Christian way
life-long member of the NRA
parade your guns around with pride
eat a sandwich at Chick fil a
show support this special day
by all God’s rules we must abide
bring up children the Christian way
it’s black or white, no shades of gray
your son's secret, he just can’t hide
eat a sandwich at Chick fil a
said he’s going to the range today
took his gun out for a ride
bring up children the Christian way
authorities would only say
appears to be a suicide
eat a sandwich at Chick fil a
bring up children the Christian way

Great write on a touch subject. Not a bible expert, but in observations of what I've read, seems God passed judgement, Christ was the kinder, gentler version who rubbed elbows with sinners and whores. If Christ existed today, would he have criticized gays, or would he have accepted and embraced them? I like to believe the latter, and that the condemnation we see comes from the religious righteous who read into, interpret and take from the bible whatever they want to, and think because they are 'born again' that they are without sin can pass judgement on all of those who believe differently than they do. Me personally, I am all for acceptance. and think it is what is in a person's heart that counts in the end.
