Jesus was 2000 years ahead of Peirce

What is the pragmatic maxim but
the statement that by our fruits
we are known

Jesus was 2000 years ahead of what
Peirce insisted was the means of
knowing things
called scientific method

How so

By showing the utility of sharing
and measuring the results
down to the last scrap

By synching his will to the
will of the sick
and achieving measurable results

But Jesus went beyond
straight to the heart
for he knew that
for change to come
the heart must be made new
as his was on the mountain
when he refused
the wiles of Satan
and thereby abolished Satan's rule

The heart is new when
it rejects authority

The heart is new when
it rejects religious show
and mumbo jumbo

The heart is new when
it can see past hypocrisy

The heart is new when
it can say
no matter what I do
I shall fail

Because the contract
involves all hearts

And too many hearts
remain unchanged

+

The game is not yet over

But at least it was defined
more than 2000 years ago
