Listening to Fools

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.

It is easy to read my weekly news magazine,
With its glossy pages and interesting tidbits.
It projects urbanity and intellect,
And I appreciate the wide reach of information.

And yet, I wonder at the cost.
Their assumption is that only fools would believe
Those old myths;
That my view of the world is the purview of hate-mongers.

But if I have the words of life;
If my God can raise people from the dead,
And alone offers restoration and forgiveness and truth:
Just who here is the fool?
