Feel free to publish, post, or pass on Your Weekly Politickle by F.R. Duplantier:
FAITH IN THE CROWD
“I’m a Christian, I certainly am,
My belief is sincere, not a sham:
I believe in the Bible,
Except when it’s liable
To put me in a bit of a jam.”
From the archive
WHO CARES?
“Why offer them resistance
When they’re way off in the distance?
Why risk our hides
By taking sides
If they’re only killing Christians?”
(2014)
FULLNESS
Though they say it’s a post-Christian time
And we follow a new paradigm,
There are martyrs galore,
More than ever before:
Christianity’s now at its prime.
(2014)
WITNESS FOR THE PERSECUTION
“Can I get a tattoo, Dad?” said she.
“It can be quite expensive,” said he.
“Why not wait and emboss
On your forearm a cross?
Let the government do it for free.”
(2012)
IN HOC SIGNO VINCES
Raise high the holy cross
And show them Who is boss:
Fight the merchants of death
With every breath
And never count the cost.
(2012)
CINO* EVIL
With a logic at best acrobatic
And morality most problematic,
You help peddlers of porn,
You help kill the unborn,
All you Christians who vote Democratic.
(2012)
CINO*
“If my actions make no sense,
I’ll say this in my defense:
I’m a psychopathic
Roman Catholic
Whose faith is mere pretense.”
(2003)
SCHADENFREUDE
Why do liberals like to besmirch
Institutions confirmed by research
As conducive to wealth,
Happiness, and health –
Such as marriage, the family, and church?
(1998)
*Christian in Name Only
Last week’s limerick
LITTLE ANGELS
They seemed monsters, the worst in creation,
Their whole lives predisposed to predation,
But it’s obvious now:
Hitler, Stalin, and Mao
Were just victims of discrimination.
