Yes, I did read the article. I think the writer makes some good points. A fellow English major? Goodness, go back and major in something meaningful! LOL! Have a good night and God Bless!
This was so beautiful.... THANK YOU for posting this!
I was hungry and you formed a humanities club
and discussed my hunger...Thank you
I was imprisoned and you crept off
quietly to your chapel, and prayed for my release.
I was naked and in your mind you debated
the morality of my appearance.
I was sick and you knelt
and thanked God for your health.
I was homeless and you preached to me
on shelter of the love of God.
I was lonely and you left me alone
to pray for me.
You seem so holy; so close to God;
but I'm still very hungry, and lonely, and cold.
