It’s hard to extol the merits of mankind br and to lavish excessive praise is insane; br recognize the gamut of vain emotion br and treatment of our brothers that’s inhumane. br br The natural nature of man is hardly good – br Proof is found in our vocabulary; br despite incredible accomplishments of this world, br poor relationships of man to extremes are still carried. br br Our literature and news is littered br with ugly views of crime and hate. br For brief review of the damage perpetuated, br let’s take time to reiterate. br br There’s slavery, incest, murder, torture, br greed, rape, hatred, genocide, racism, br bigotry, fear, starvation, thievery, br lasciviousness and terrorism. br br Uncaring predators have always existed, br unable to overcome the evil within. br Such conditions show our need for a loving God, br to triumph over the presence and affects of sin.
