People have completely changed the main message not only in Christianity but all religions. There is one message in all of it...that is LOVE ALL, FORGIVE...We are all one people, there is no separate!!! It is only how you choose to see it. Money is an illusion. It's the greedy people at the way top who control all of this, and they know exactly what they are doing; Instill fear and hate. All of the money hungry people who control us would come toppling down if everyone applied love all around.
@joeyess Whether you want to believe it or not there is a God. Have you helped the needy lately? I'm so sorry that you are an atheist. I agree that there are alot of wolves in sheep's clothing out there but not all ministers of the gospel are bad.
@1954phyllis there is a god? prove it. Have I helped the needy lately? My wife and I buy used wheelchairs and walkers at estate sales and give them away to those in need weekly. I send clothes to city mission every winter, I call when I see someone broken down on the highway, I advocate that the wealthy pay more in taxes so "the needy" are fewer. As for ministers and the gospels? Total snake-oil salesmen. Religion is going to be the death of us all. I reject it and I reject your phantasm.
Thanks for sharing this joeyess! I thought it was good!
And yeah, that idiot "TheHonestTheist" really vomited his ignorance here, didn't he?
Its always funny to watch these kinds of Theists talk about intelligence, debate, honesty, etc etc, all the while breaking all of those aspects in every debate.
Their silly religion is no longer needed, and it frightens them. Despite their attempts to drag us back to the Dark Ages, we will get them to eventually grow up.
Great video, liked the tune, mine if I share it with most of my atheist friends on YT? Too bad, I'm sending this one too all, not enough views..5Stars...
Great line about "10% coming to me". You also have some great rhyming going on in this one. The easy going feel of the song contrasts the anger and frustration of the vocals. Nicely done.
I'm sick of the sad truth that no one can think. "The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking." - John Kenneth Galbraith... It's seems impossible to change a person's opinion. The religious/"G"od argument is the punching of a brick wall. But either way, keep on fighting the good fight. I always appreciate seeing allies. :D
BTW, Holyrollers with bibles I know to avoid at all cost. Your song claims 10% of your earnings the churches want. Bible thumping in-laws of mine claim cost of living went up. Churches now want 20% of your earnings. lol
Man written bible has been revised so many times it is sick to think any of it is true. Only true to the idiots that use it for a tool to acct for there sinful ways. Bible was written to control people. That is my belief. You hit it on the head with this video. Thanks for posting it.
Y'know, it seems to me if Christians were really as wound up as they say they are about helping the helpless their worship buildings would all be pretty nondescript and utilitarian and all their money would be going to outreach programs to the needy.
No bright white paint; just stain. No brilliant steeples; just a roof. No bigscreen tvs, 2000 lumine projectors or balconies. Just folding chairs and kneeling stools.
In fact, if memory serves the legend of Jesus doesn't include structures at all.
I think if you read the book of John you would be surprised. Jesus loved the poor, & spent time with those the world looked down on, including the "sinners.'
The only people he ever had harsh words for were not gays, abortionists, or alcoholics- or even murderers or rapists- but the "religious hypocrites" who preached and led the congregations- but did not love others.
"Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined, and imprisoned, yet we have not advanced one inch toward uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half of the world fools and the other half hypocrites." - Thomas Jefferson (Notes on Virginia)
Religion is a pyramid scheme to gather wealth and power to a few old men. Whats new? The sooner we start to replace faith and religion with rationality and philosophy the better.
There is a saying in German: He who has art, science and philosophy doesn't need religion. So lets make sure everyone has access to those three.
Great video, If you need any help getting your videos or channel exposed, i use a service called thetubeviews . net it has helped 5 of my videos get ranked on the first page
@Magginkat What do you expect? Our lack of knowledge of this universe as a whole puts us in an ignorant zone where we seek for imaginary friends because we don't know the truth.
Pure gold; I saved it! (smile) I wish we could tax these charlatans, or better yet get them off the TV, as it makes me sick to watch them sell their snake oil to the hopeless!
Thank you Sky Daddy, and joeyess! Keep 'em coming!
BRILLIANT. You are 100% right about all of this and the song and images absolutely depict these wretches and their sick dreams of dominating the world and using their ridiculous "scriptures" as an excuse for the nasty ways they come up with to do it. Super video!!!!!!!!
When One Person Suffers From A Delusion, It Is Called Insanity. When Many People Suffer From A Delusion It Is Called Religion.
Religion does three things quite effectively: Divides people, Controls people & Deludes the very essence of what it means to Be Human.
Another Brilliant Masterpiece Joey! Well done revealing the hypocrisy of religion, esp. when it preys on the fear & weakness of people who are told to give more money & pray harder when their prayers aren't answered. You ROCK!
I hope we are truly in the beginning of a "mind" shift in this country!
After seeing the lastest poll numbers that say 63% of Americans think Evolution is lie compared to only 41% in 1994 I think we have a lot of work to do!
... I don't wanna. :| I just watched the clip from the House committee on Climate Change in which the representative read from the bible and declared he thought the bible was the inerrant word of God and because of the bible people couldn't destroy the planet because that's apparently God's job.
I can't take any more political insanity in one day.
Fabulous theme, songwriting, production & all your vid clips and signs and all are so right on!
And those self righteous hypocrite televangelists are Sons of Bitches" and use God & religion to hate Gay people like me! Benny Hinn is truly one of the worst lowlife's on this planet! And all the money they fleece is Tax Free!
Joeyess, that closing scene with the "Twin Towers" speaks "volumes" all by itself! Peace!
I met god and he told he has nothing to do with this clowns... he also told me that his name got twisted and it have never been god so all the blasphemes are forgiven (: a very bold video production
patriotism and religion should NEVER EVER be intertwined.
which is why you get a lot of this propagandized religious people, misinforming what Christianity is all about. Men such as Ben Hinn, who are such successful televangelists, that they don't know which bill to choose to wipe their asses with. Bible said to give to the poor, and just look at what Christian conservative US politicians aren't doing.
Great theme, songwriting, singing and video. (and harmonica and guitar). i also love the end pic with the twin towers and john's lyric. thanks again joyess.
I think it's time they ALL quit the twisted perversion they preach. They are frauds perpetuating an endless hate gospel disgused as "love". Great job on this beautiful song. The video ending with John Lennon's beautiful lyrics to Imagine gave me goose bumps. Thank you joeyess for stomping on their toes. I will join you, if you don't mind. (smile)
Another great one joyess,that old prosperity religion and fundamentalism go hand in hand.A real shame there are so many sheep who let people with mail order phd's do their thinking for them.
It's the greed of power and fame as much as it is for money and wealth. These people have egos the sizes of their multi-mega churches and international reach of their tentacles. They each want their names to become household words and your bookshelves filled with their boring books and CDs..
Great video. Something I've never understood is how people fall for any of this. Admittedly I was raised in a rather nonreligious household growing up. Went to church until my early teens, then was able to get out of it simply because I thought it was boring. I didn't even know my own father was an nonbeliever until my mid 30's, although I did suspect it before hand. I understand it can be a powerful message to many people, but I guess I just don't get it.
the true nature of the church (any church) is to control everybody they can and to get as much money out of them and to give false hope

I have no problem with churches per say, I just have problems with church organizations that lobby the federal, state and local governments.
There's a great line in the movie The Contender, when Joan Allen claims the Captiol Dome as her "chapel of democracy".
I don't go into their churches and tell them what god to pray to.
They can stay out of my "chapel of democracy" with their gods.
