U.R. A U.U.? Poem by James Hart

Just turned 60
A retired Vicar
A disabled Priest

Nothing to do with it though
Just free to think what I want
Free to throw ideas around

Whilst enjoying the warmth
Of high-Church Services
With incense and a glorious choir

Now God is one –
As the Muslims say
But for 1 see 3, the Christians say

Yet Jesus was monotheistic
The Bible is monotheistic
But 4th century Christians are Trinitarian

For mystical theology God is 1
We reverence Jesus and the Paraclete
But God is1

Does that make me a Unitarian?

The Creator God
Made every one
But it makes him heartless
Tyrannical and cruel
Pointless and sick
If he then condemns
Half to eternal damnation
To languish in an endless hell

Does that make me a Universalist?

It doesn’t matter
What it makes me
It only matters
That God is glorified in me
