Without Choice There Is No Love


26. Certainty in Sin & Piety

I see the certainty of sin and piety in my brothers,
And wish that I too had such sureness of footing
Astride both mountains.

(From 'The Nineteen Verses', circa Sept 2004)


If man is given the transcendental opportunity to love, it is a necessary condition that he is also given the choice to sin. Otherwise, God really would have just stuck with the Angels.
