Best song about religion ive ever heard



https://youtu.be/HGH3VI2eWWs

"I do whatever The Bible tells me to
Except for the parts that I choose to ignore
Because they're unrealistic and inconvenient
But the rest I live by for sure
So let's not talk about how the Good Book bans shellfish,
Polyester and divorce
And how it condones slavery and killing gays
Because those parts don't count, of course
Let's cherry-pick the part about
Losing my cherry and mine it for ambiguities and omissions
To circumvent any real sacrifice,
But still feel pious in my arbitrary parroted positions
And don't you dare question my convictions
And don't look closely at the contradictions
Just focus on the sacrificial crucifixion
And have faith in its complete jurisdiction
As the only way to measure if you're good or not
And in a debate, just say to "have faith"
Because when you're up against logic, it's the only card you've got
So close your eyes take a deep breath and."

Lol, religious people are dumb.

reply

That's a generalization and stereotype. There are intelligent people and not so intelligent people in every group. There are people of all religions who are very intelligent and there are people who are not religious and are not very bright.

reply

True. I should've said religion itself is dumb.

There's lots of Sunday Christians walking o'er this land
They go to church one day a week and take a christian stand
They dress up in their Suday best so everyone can see
They're only Sunday Christians - one day a week.

They party every Saturday night until the break of day
They never get to church on time because they sleep too late
Then they walk proudly down the aisle and take the front row seat
For you're a Sunday Christian one day a week

Now when this life is over and it's Judgment Day
There's lots of Sunday Christians that's gonna have to pay
The Lord will start to count 'em out and they will hear him speak
I can't use no Sunday Christians one day a week

The Lord's Prayer (The "Our Father") the only thing found in all 4 gospels.

"Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."

This is it. Here. Now. Heaven. Or something else.

You're supposed to say Imagine by that Dead Hippy!
