Thread Name: Was 'Lord of the Dance' anti-semitic?
Subject: RE: Was 'Lord of the Dance' anti-semitic?
From another Sidney Carter song (Friday Morning In the song the words are coming from the one of the robbers crucified along with Christ "It was on a Friday morning that they took me from my cell And I saw they had a carpenter to crucify as well. You can blame it on to Pilate, you can blame it on the Jews, You can blame it on the Devil, it's God I accuse. It's God they ought to crucify, instead of you and me, I said to the carpenter a-hanging on the tree."
That'll be Sydney then - a long long way from a religious intolerant or fundamentalist wouldn't you say?
