UNIVERSAL ETHIC
I contend
That tolerance
Helpfulness
And democracy
Are three
Ontological
Markers
that
point to
Efficacious
Individual
Community
And universal
Actions
and
Expressions
+
Tolerance
Is acceptance
And love
Defining
How we deal
With challenges
It means not
Taking sides
But using
Tolerance as
A standard
For viewing
All elements
Before us
+
Helpfulness
Is education
Enablement
And a hand up
+
Education
Should teach these
Values
And
Take pains
To address the
Genius found
In every person
Of any age
Education should
Be free and
Equally delivered
Education
Should prepare
All for
Work in
Any area
+
Democracy
Is the ideal
Polity for all
We are not
Perfect
We all have the
Same rights
We are all equal
This is the basis for
All decisions
Involving more
Than one
Each one
Free to
Say yes
Or no
At any
Point
+
Democracy
Is best understood
As the LOCAL
Expression
Of governance
It is universal
It should
Hold in
Every
Context
At every
Level
+
Ethics
Are universal
And their center
Is sacred
If you break
Love
Into
Ontological
Terms
That are
Understandable
To all
Then
Tolerance
Helpfulness
And
Democracy
Are clear
Signs
Pointing
Heavenward
