Christians have been talking about
The so-called deadly sins
For centuries since Tertullian
First promoted them
In the 2nd Century AD Roman Empire.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Roman Empire was filled with people
Who were guilty of these sins
None more than the Emperors Caligula
And Nero.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lately the seven deadly sins
Have come back
As many of our political leaders
Seem to be poster children
For the deadly sins.
.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
None more that Donald Trump
Who daily violates the seven deadly sins
Often with inpunity.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He is consumed with retribution
Revenge and enemies
All part of his pride, his greed
His envy and his wrath.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With three wifes
And numerous affairs
He has also been guilty
Of the sin of lust.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And his love of the big Mac
And his famous disdain
For exercise
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reveals his foundness
Of the sin of glottony
And sloth.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yet despite his daily violations
Of the deadly sins
His supporters give him a pass
Somehow thinking that he
Is a Christian.
