Joe do you really think these simplistic lyrics are in any way positive. Stereotypes and generalisations only feed the simple minded, do you as a Christian like being grouped with "Gay bashin, black fearin' poor fightin'"? |

Here's Todd Snider performing it Click here It reminds be a bit of the Youngblood's parody of "Okie From Muskogee", "Hippie From Olema" that Banana recently redid with some hot bluegrass musicians.

I tend to laugh at both sides. I posted the song because I think it's funny. I do, however, delete the posts of anonymous guests if the tone of their posts is negative. We allow anonymous posting for serious music discussion, not for trolling. Got that, HiLo? -Joe- |

15 May 17 - 10:34 AM (#3855243) Subject: RE: ADD: Conservative Christian Right-Wing Repub... From: akenaton My wife is very ill in hospital, although I have seldom been in Church and am nominally an atheist many local Christians have come and asked if they may pray for us both......I have been very deeply touched by their concern. They are wonderful people who embody the principles of the Christian faith.....If there is a God and an afterlife I wish them nothing but good in it. I am beginning to think that we atheist do not have the strength to support a faith, we are so inhibited by science and life. I am constantly reminded of an event concerning the death of a relative which could not be explained, it concerned powers of communication which science reckons to be impossible.....but I know it actually happened. Was it God or simply a power that we are unable to explain like intuition? Let the Mystery be I say. Joe, I'm sorry to say this, but you only encourage the enemies of your faith. |

Or take up spiritualism & table rapping. Your wonderful local Christians could just as easily be doing it for their own sake. |

You are a decent guy, why do you find it so hard to see goodness in others? This place has more than it's share of phoneys, I have never considered you to be insincere and you know that I have no faith, why insult me? |

15 May 17 - 11:32 AM (#3855258) Subject: RE: ADD: Conservative Christian Right-Wing Repub... From: Greg F. Have any local non-Christians also offered support, Ake? If you consider someone taking issue with silly statements like "an event concerning the death of a relative which could not be explained, it concerned powers of communication which science reckons to be impossible" to be an "insult" then I would suggest you refrain from making such in future. |

From: akenaton Thanks Greg and Jack I will pass on your good wishes; amazing how little things mean such a lot at times like this. Greg, you have no right to take issue, you don't know what I am referring to...and it was far from "silly" at the time, I was deeply shocked. |
