bishopshodan Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 MJK is one of the best lyricist of a generation. When he was young his mom suffered an aneurysm, paralyzing her. She never lost faith. This event inspired these lyrics, it echos the reason so many dont believe. If there's a god, they just can't accept his 'plan'. Her name was Judith. You're such an inspiration for the ways That I'll never ever choose to be Oh so many ways for me to show you How your savior has abandoned you Fuck your God Your Lord and your Christ He did this Took all you had and Left you this way Still you pray, you never stray Never taste of the fruit You never thought to question why It's not like you killed someone It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side Praise the one who left you Broken down and paralyzed He did it all for you He did it all for you Oh so many many ways for me to show you How your dogma has abandoned you Pray to your Christ, to your god Never taste of the fruit Never stray, never break Never choke on a lie Even though he's the one who did this to you You never thought to question why Not like you killed someone It's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side Talk to Jesus Christ As if he knows the reasons why He did it all for you Did it all for you He did it all for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how could that be? Even when he was a kid growing up, he didn’t commit even one sin? That doesn’t add up. It's because he was a fucking dweeb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However if I was a believer I wouldn't blame a god for the bad shit that happens. Just as I wouldn't attribute the good that happens to individuals, or events, to a god. For starters good and bad, wrong and right, are subjective things. What mystifies me is that people who claim to be non believers, such as the person who wrote that song, seem quick to place the responsibility of bad things that happen to believers, on the god the believers, believe in. Or at the very least use those bad things as a reason for the non existence of a god. If we are to use that logic, does a subjective good provide evidence of a god ? My life experience is bad things happen to all of us. What defines us, is how we react/deal with those when they happen. My oldest, closest friend, the best person I know, has had some really shitty things happen to him from the age of five onwards. It how he has dealt with these events that is a major part of what makes him the best person I know. He doesn't attribute blame or carry malice in his heart. In fact the very opposite is true, the people who let him down, big time, his family. Later in life when they needed him the most he was, and still is there for them. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it’s one song divided into 2 parts, like Parabol/Parabola. They’re Wings For Marie and 10,000 Days(Wings Pt. 2). The album they’re on is also called 10,000 Days. A lot of fans didn’t like it as much as their earlier albums, but it’s my favourite. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnkNuk Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Interesting article about the disconnect between the teachings of Christian churches and what their church goers believe: Catholics’ beliefs have little in common with Church teachings in Canada and the U.S. Canadian Christians’ beliefs don’t necessarily match what their churches teach. That’s one of the key findings in a major new study by Cardus, Still Christian(?): What Canadian Christians Actually Believe. The survey of Canadian Christians found some significant inconsistencies between personal beliefs and historic church teachings https://bccatholic.ca/news/canada/the-world-is-colonizing-us-catholics-beliefs-have-little-in-common-with-church-teachings-in-canada-and-the-u-s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still love it as amongst the best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
