Double Standards
June 7, 2021
What matters more, heart or brain?
The ability to think, or the ability to feel pain?
What matters more, soul or speech?
The ability to know, or the ability to preach?
What is a pig but a young, mute child?
Is there a difference, or is that just how they are filed?
This thought may leave you stricken
Then ask, what is a chicken?
What is the difference in what we eat
That makes one flesh and the other meat?
