drop the name Christian


we should drop the name Christian
the adjective, the reference
just as we should drop Muslim
when we name a terrorist
the actions are not Christian
as exemplified by Christ
when he saw someone hurting
he stopped to give them aid
he didn’t worry about convention
of interpretation or law
Christ healed when
someone came to him
he cared for all
