Pride is everywhere Comes in many forms The rich man is proud of what he has The poor man is honored for having less The talented are proud of what they do The less talented are proud of their hard work The religious are proud of their religion The unbeliever proud of his unbelief The established man is proud of his social status The counter-cultured proud to be outcast The learned man proud of his intelligence The simple man proud of his simplicity If thre is a universal sin would not pride be the first God hates the men of pride He thinks they are the worst
