The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that’s the essence of inhumanity. ~ George Bernard Shaw
I know everything you have done,
and you are not cold or hot.
I wish you were either one or the other. *
Inhumanity? the quality or state
of being cruel or barbarous?
Is not having an opinion cruel?
Is indifference offensive?
What happened to “judge not”?
Jesus said, “Judge not, that you be not judged.
For with the judgment you pronounce
you will be judged,
and with the measure you use
it will be measured to you”
What others do is not our primary concern;
what we do is our primary concern.
Does the answer to it all
lie in “Do unto others
as you would have them
do unto you?”
and you are not cold or hot.
I wish you were either one or the other. *
