In response to Langston Hughes' poem, "Goodbye Christ", all I can say is thank you someone said it. Let me see, let me watch my words here. I believe in faith, and faith is amazing and spiritual and gives us all "morals". But, do not give me a book upon my ability to read words and force me to worship and open my heart to something that has been so commercialized, over written, and "swelled up" as Hughes put it. What have I seen and witnessed but the "story of Christ" and its inflammation of many sorts. This is my testimony. Let me believe what I want, let me ask the questions I please and do not silence me. Give me "free will". Count me in on Hughes' final words, "And nobody's gonna sell Me, to a king, a general, or a millionaire". I'll continue to make my mother cry and believe what I want.
