The Word

This is just something I randomly wrote:

In the beginning there was the word and the word was good. Many were asked to spread the word and that the did. The word was good. What harm could it do?

The word was not good. It only encouraged people to think the word was good. The word was the master. The word said to start a war and many did.

Many continued to think the word was good. Man could now see the word was not good. The word asked for peace but many were now so accustomed to war that the word could not stop it.

The word had lost its power. The many that were at war now took control of the word. The word was good. The many would see that the word was good. Many would continue to flock to the word because the word was good. Others knew better.

The word had no power. The word was the tool of the others. The word now had new masters. Others could see the word was not good. Others tried to tell the many that the word was not good. The many would not listen. Both the Many and the Others were stubborn.

Does the word represent wisdom?

This is a synopsis of the beginning of mankind. It has been written in many ways: Adam and Eve exiled out of Eden and begotten sin. The release of Pandora's box. But I like this simple, yet powerful papragraph on the "cancer" of mankind.

It's very enlightening.

There was no real thought behind it. It just rolled off the fingertips. It was an attempt to kickstart my writing.

I thought the word was the bible.

Sounded like it to me.

The Bible certainly was the inspiration but isn't each person's take on it interesting?
