"Hunger, poverty, covetousness can rob us of God-given logic"

We need not be philosophy students to possess common logic. It is a gift bequeathed to all by God. Some are bereft of it not by a fault from God but as a result of whims.

We need not be philosophy students to possess common logic. It is a gift bequeathed to all by God. Some are bereft of it not by a fault from God but as a result of whims. Most often, these persons with less reasoning always launch beneath and beyond discretion. They never fall on the ray of insight in all they do. It seems obvious that those who turn out to become social misfits must have traded it with pride and tasteless excesses.

It is upon this platform that I owe it a necessity to pen on a boy with swollen shoulders. He flaunts his foolishness with extreme styles. He makes everyone queasy with his bellows that are undoubtedly the blast of vacant mind. He lost his minute wit years before now. I think he has exchanged his God-given reasoning with sartorial cravings. So it was not in any way a surprise when he misbehaved again distracting the hallowed chambers of the man that escaped dwarfism.  Bravo to the powers that be, for passing a verdict that depicts poetic justice; for once they have proved to be a body of dignified men. Now that this poet-taster, jester, and simpleton has been circumscribed, our atmosphere shall be rid of contaminated ego. Congratulations to the new pariah and his cohorts.

Another of his kind is a would-be lawyer.  He is a kid with least morals, a jambite with stumbling tongue, a first-rate scholar with bile morals and a duck that ought to still be sucking whose virtue was thrown away with the placenta. Of his, is the exhibition of apt nonsense. For I ask why will a child willingly decide to feed his parents with insulting words?  Well, such is life. Our morals are no more. I doubt if they ever existed in shadows let alone in concrete beings.

Also, when the rat befriends the cat, is our pot of soup safe? Of what use then are checks and balances? For what use then is separation of powers? This is no less the reason for the theatrical performance regularly displayed by the powers that be in this faculty of humanities. This establishes the fact that hunger, poverty and covetousness can also rob us of our God-given logic.

In all, social logic and moral reasoning are innate abilities that men often themselves murder for paltry benefits. As mentioned earlier, notable among the murderers of what is today called common sense are pride and stealing in their variant forms. If not senseless pride, an old nutcase will not chirp ceaselessly when and where silence is needed. Similarly, embezzlement, a suave way of eulogizing light fingering often make men cook up lies devoid of logic. What a life!  May your God-given logic never depart from you and may you not trade it for frivolity.
