Said nobody ever.
Stop watching Fox. Stop reading Breitbart. They are lying to you.Rrhain Thank you for your submission to Science. Your paper was reviewed by a jury of seventh graders so that they could look for balance and to allow them to make up their own minds. We are sorry to say that they found your paper "bogus," specifically describing the section on the laboratory work "boring." We regret that we will be unable to publish your work at this time. Minds are like parachutes. Just because you've lost yours doesn't mean you can use mine.

WWJD?
I found that people disagreedwith little details of my creed. It made me very mad indeed; I took the very dimmest view. I wondered: What Would Jesus Do? To imitate the Son of ManI came up with a subtle plan that fit the situation well: consulting my (extensive) notes on who are sheep, and who are goats, I damned the latter all to Hell; 'cos that, if all I've read is true is just what Jesus plans to do. Though others laughed and thought it oddI publicly and loudly claimed to speak on the behalf of God and who can say I should be blamed? --- for as you see, I took my cue from things that Jesus used to do. I told them what the Lord approvedand who it was he faulted; which people he would like removed and which (like me) exalted, 'cos this, as I am sure you knew, is just what Jesus used to do. I beat them with a whip (or thong)to show them they were in the wrong; perhaps you think my actions mean, but as it says in verse 15 of St. John's Gospel, chapter 2, that's just what Jesus used to do. --- As you'll have guessed (I think it's plain)I write in a sarcastic strain. My moral, as I should explain to readers who are dim, is this: feel free to wonder What Would Jesus Do, but if you're not the Godhead incarnate as man, just try to do the best you can, but don't behave like him.

your last verse kinda fizzled out...but overall a funny witticism.
Chance as a real force is a myth. It has no basis in reality and no place in scientific inquiry. For science and philosophy to continue to advance in knowledge, chance must be demythologized once and for all. —RC Sproul "A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." —Mark Twain " ~"If that's not sufficient for you go soak your head."~Faith

Try doing what Jesus did at your bank.

Remember that Jesus is throwing over the desks of believers and whipping believers, not atheists or Buddhists or Taoists or animists or those worshiping Zeus or Coyote.

your last verse kinda fizzled out... Well, any suggestions? Most of the poem is just basically a list of stuff that Jesus did that wouldn't go well if I did it. A list, not an argument building to a conclusion, or a joke working up to a punchline, or a narrative with a beginning, a middle and an end. I can't just stop when I run out of things to put on the list, it has to have a coda saying, well, something, or the poem would look, and indeed be, unfinished. (Quite a lot of my poems are in effect lists, this is a problem I have faced before.)
