Epistemology

Here's how it works: consider, if a god
Is good, all-knowing, and all-powerful,
Why should an infant suffer? More than odd,
It's nasty. We prayed at the tractor pull,
But our guy didn't win the biggest prize,
And when we lifted our eyes heavenward
The only thing that happened to our eyes
Was they went blind. What else occurred
When both sides claimed they understood god's will,
Except that nobody was smart enough
To follow arguments on whom to kill?
Epistemology is really tough:
When newborn babies cry in desperate pain,
Good creatures try to help them. God? Insane.
