Analysis of Stopping Evolution To Legislate Against It
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Legislating evolution.
With a doing to introduce laws that prevents,
An ongoing process.
To document,
Without approval or given consent...
What is believed to be a man made reality.
Can be stopped to have...
A past the has progressed to move fast,
Away from what is not meant to last.
Is a task those who sit,
In positions powerless to avoid yet insist...
That this Earth ever changing to evolve,
As is witnessed to observe it does.
Will continue regardless of what those do,
To wish it proven God is a myth.
Leaving many to perceive,
Their blessed existence...
Had been conceived immaculately.
And they of limited conscious awareness,
Can create laws and rules...
That legislates a doing away of evolution.
Will make Inhabitants living on Earth obey,
What they are told to do.
With a refusing to change...
On an Earth God created.
And is God's domain.
To choose what The Almighty does.
With changes made,
From season to season.
Never to remain the same.
Although...
Kept to limits to prove they can restrict,
Who does what and with whom they choose...
Will not be allowed if not approved.
No matter what proof that God is the doer.
Or a legislation,
Documented and man made to present.
Can prevent to stop,
Who or whomever believes...
They sit in positions of power to prove,
Themselves either fools or unaware...
This Earth is not theirs to control,
The weather or the Inhabitants on it.
However...
What man has proven they can create,
Is destruction, division and hatred.
'What is going on these days?'
Mental illness and a normalized craze.
'I am not talking about that.
I'm referring to all the ignorance,
And allowed stupidity that seems to exist.'
So right you are.
How can anyone miss to not recognize,
The difference.
