Love, Hate, and Greed Without Freud's Thanatos and Eros Theme



But love is something hard to describe
Accurately to logic's mind
And many people have disagreed
About how Jesus could love someone like me
Or how he loved his Apostle John
Upon whose breast he did lean upon
At the last supper before Jesus was gone
To prove Jerusalem's judges wrong
And be a subject for heavenly song.
                        To go on
I said that many did disagree
About what Jesus'es love decree did mean
"Love each other as I have loved thee"
                        For Instance
According to the translators King James hired,
Jesus loved John to follow
Where/as oth/er theolog/ically hol/low
Bibles/ state/ John did Je/sus fol/low.
                        And then,
Many so-called Christians say
The Apostles were perfect in every way
And therefore Paul disagreed not with James
About the virtue of works versus faith
Despite the fact that John did relate
That false rumours went about
From other follower's teaching spouts.
                 Anyway we can agree
That theologians have much disagreed
About the meaning of Jesus'es love theme
And I have spent the last ten years
Without much success in setting love's gears.
