They Tell The Whole World Poem by Francis Duggan

They tell the whole World that their god is great
Yet those who believe different to them they do hate
One would hope that god is far kinder in every way
Than some of the the followers who in their house of worship to him pray
A god of compassion such behavior would not condone
Of those not free of sin who cast the verbal stone
Judge not and thou shalt not be judged from the mouths of the wise
That tolerance is a gift of the compassionate such people do not realize
Anybody who believes differently to them they do treat as a foe
For to be good people they have some way to go
If there happens to be a heaven somewhere in the sky
For to get there compassion and tolerance are things they should try
This does seem a far better idea for them instead
Of wishing others with different beliefs to them dead.
