Re: "Walk a mile in another man's shoes."

I don't have a long list of even people I do not like today... I once upon a time had a very long list of people I did not even know with whom I believed were hated by God... but the God of this world is on the short list of beings I am not fond of today... He is the mean little boy who tortures small animals but grows out of it... I remember as a child when I put fire crackers in locusts' craws and they held on to the explosive because they can do no other... They flew away and exploded in the air while I gleefully watched... I thought...if I thought that the locusts could feel no pain... but other times I would take locusts and rip their wings off and watch as ants crawled on them and killed them... other times I lighted gasoline in ant beds to watch the ants pour out... I kept horny toads as prisoners in boxes and released them after a day...but sometimes I forgot and they all died... The God of this world thinks of us in this same way... but in a much more sophisticated way... I was a likable kid but if you were a locust... I was Sadaam... I grew up believing my country was always right... and the people in other tribes and countries do the same... The God of this world loved me as a child and I was well rewarded for that love... It takes about two decades to grow a killer but I met a God who has grown up... before I killed any people... at least directly...
