    I suppose there are some aspects of religion that qualify as entertainment. This doesn't really fit anywhere else.

    I just came across this poem, sent by Louie Crew, founder of Integrity in the Episcopal Church. Sorry about all of the "his" pronouns but the metre of the poem doesn't work with the appropriate changes:

    We make his love too narrow
    By false limits of our own
    And we magnify his strictness
    With zeal he will not own.

    -- Frederick William Faber

    Peace

    Thanks for sharing this Mike. It packs a lot of truth into a few short lines!
