The best poem in the world!

(author - Unknown)


I was shocked, confused, bewildered
As I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights or its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven
Who made me sputter and gasp...
The thieves, the liars, the sinners,
The alcoholics, the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade
Who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor
Who never said anything nice.

Herb, who I always thought
Was rotting away in hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
Looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, 'What's the deal?
I would love to hear Your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here?
God must've made a mistake.

'And why's everyone so quiet,
So somber? Give me a clue.'
'Hush, child,' said He, 'they're all in shock..
No one thought they'd be seeing you.'rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Why shouldn't we judge? Please enlighten me dear friends.

ooby_dooby: Great poem whoever wrote it!


yes it is a great poem. But do you agree with that idea?

It's a famous idea of Jesus. Wasn't he against Jews church and government who exploited people? Didn't he say to the people not to pay unfair taxes? So, didn't he has judgment on government and church.

Without having judgments how can we live in this world? We should have judgments on everything. Please someone explain me that idea. Actually i grew up in a Buddhist culture. I want to know the real idea of Jesus on Judgment.confused
