The OV’s got all those who hold
the future is determined,
uneasy, and they’re squirmin
over what they have been told.

“If God knows not ALL that will be
he cannot be omniscient.
‘To know’ is not ‘to wish it’
God’s not that way you see!”

“We’re really free,” they say. But how?
To do just what I want to?
Not other than I do do?
Precisely like a cow?

Can freedom like they speak of
explain the give-and-take
necessary to make
relationships of real love?

It’s hard to change your mind when
tradition, oh so strong,
tells you that you’re wrong
and colleagues call to weigh in.

While theologic wars are burning
excommunication
has become my expectation;
for new work now I am turning!

Tom, have you set your poem to music? This ditty could be destined to become the open theism anthem! As a pipe-puffing poetry-spouting feminist-friendly open theist, you’ll be excommunicated for sure.…but you may not want to quit your day job… pia
