Why Do Church Folk Act So Evil Sometimes?

by Milton Lee Norris

Why do church folk act so evil sometimes?
They say that they love God,
Yet some of them are the first to curse God.
They say that they are Christians,
Yet some of them are the first to scorn their neighbors.
They say that they are loving, and that they love people,
Then why do they choose whom to love?
Why do they choose to leave some people out their love?
Aren’t Christians supposed to be aspiring to be like Jesus?
Then why do so many have color barriers preventing them from loving everyone?
Why do other Christians only love those, or befriend those who look like them?
Why do other Christians refuse to love gay people, aren’t we Christians too?
Funny thing, the gay Christians don’t have a problem loving them,
Why do they have a problem loving us, and more to the point,
Why do they call themselves Christians?
Good evening everyone!
