Not to the Wise

A wise and intelligent man
Often loses sight of faith.
An unwise and dull man must live by it.
For intelligent men rely
Upon their own faculties
More than dull men rely upon theirs.
Dull men must live by serendipity,
Therefore, they see the Law of God works.
They do not question it,
For by not questioning it---
For they cannot, for they are without the ability to---
They go through life happily.

Intelligent men, we must peer into every statute
And understand why it is written so.
It's why so very few of us ever attain
To Eternal life, as the Faith required
Is far less difficult than understanding God's eternal law.
Men cannot understand the law entirely...
Not even I. For, that is why Faith must be present
In a population, for if mankind judges
And is the sole determiner of what is right or wrong
I am afraid we find ourselves making perilous mistakes
Which lead to a rotting core and overall unhappiness.
