Yes, often there is clash between what Science asserts and what the Bible teaches! But as you strongly believe, I too believe that God is the Alpha and Omega of everything! Without His will, we cannot move even our little finger! He spoke in parables to make the common people understand! Even Noah's ark must be a metaphor! Enjoyed this perfectly rhyming poem and a 10

great rhyme scheme and rhyming. i've sent a few minor suggestions to ya. I SAY: “neither the Bible nor Science will be ever contrite, but, instead, each will say of the other: “You Bite! ” how about Earth, instead of earth here (two places i think) , AND goat seems a bit weak. are goats so bad? you'll probably never convert me, brian, but nice try! thanks for giving me something to do rather than take a walk on this beautiful afternoon or eat gobs of cool, delicious ice cream. the poem is sustaining me by itself. ha ha. bri ;) ok, Ok, OK! ! ! i'll send it to MyPoemList already! ! and Lora's comment has prodded me to even give it a 9; i usually don't give a score, and if i were to give a 10, it would probably be to ME!

Wow! I got halfway through your poem, then decided to just wait for the movie! Ha. No, I'm just kidding. I love the poem. You expressed everything you felt with perfect rhyming and metre. Though we share different opinions about God and religion, I can put this aside and give you a 10 for your writing talent. Well done, Brian.
