Getz Misread

During a chat at table, Mapovia and I explore a problem
which for countless generations has vexed humanity,
namely that disputes about belief can be disruptive
and have been a cause of much bad blood.

Atheists comprise a small minority
Notwithstanding, diverse opinions should be tolerated,
unless they call for ethnic cleansing.

Mapovia and I in the poem, "Useless Arguments"
proposed that we theists ought to leave atheists be.
If they want to refute the existence of God,
that's nobody business but their own.

Perhaps, the Lord of Matter and Anti-matter,
of Space and Anti-space, of Time and Anti-time has predestined
that certain individuals argue in favor of no god.

Is it not written,
God works in strange
and mysterious ways?
Includes, I suppose people
