This is madness. No way lil Puritan dude. THIS IS GOD!

         In my opinion, I believe that the reading provided the reader with a somewhat manipulated and controlled sense of mine. My belief stems from the fact that God is said to control the individual. This crucial piece of information makes it seem as though God could be a very cunning and possibly diabolical entity due to the fact that he determines your fate, and he can decide whether to rid you from existence or watch you squirm at his whim. Personally, this idea seems outrageous and unimaginable. The thought of my own fate being determined by one individual seems stressful. What more is that you aren't allowed to disagree. If you choose such a course of action, your life won't be spared with even a second thought.
          The poem also demonstrates how power can change a person, and gives a sense of heirachy in the form of a divinve-being capable of causing unfathomable destruction to the world, such as the creation of tsunamiss and other natural disasters. In many ways, the God may be a kind deity who seeks peace and justice, and is willing to use the strengths thou possesses to carry out their ideals. In all aspects, this thing that matters is who this grand ruler is, and the answer to what they seek. If you can get on their good side, you will be spared.

  1. I agree. I don't think that your life is being controlled by God or some other deity. You can change your own fate.
