This poem highlights the pathology of justifying one's own abhorrent behaviour, because one feels that one has divine backing to be misinformed and cruel.
[It
is futile to expect empathy from those whose idea of righteousness is
re-victimizing the victim]
"The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart." ... St. Jerome
