I love this song and I agree with most of their views. To those offended by this song, I think of the quote from the great philosopher, mike Muir, of Suicidal Tendencies said " If your offended, Maybe you need to be offended." You need to be told your wrong on those beliefs, because your too brainwashed, to see the real truth of the world.
I am against hate, wars etc... but we all need to face the facts. Wars have been happening since the dawn of man. One tribe goes and attacks another, takes their land/resources and grows. No matter how much people say "there should be no wars" there will always be wars. The only way to stop a war, is to fight and win. I do agree with you that wars cause wars, but if anybody knows a way to end war, tell me and I'll join you and your group to help.
Sorry, but "you're wrong" (quote the song). Not ALL wars have been over religion. There have been wars over political and social ideologies many, many times. Now, I know that (probably) the majority of wars have been over religion, but look at the US civil war, or what's going-on in France. Also, the attacks on Iraq/afghanistan have nothing to do with religion, just politics and oil (my opinion). Religious zealots may try and steal the war for their cause, but we all now that it's not true.
"There have been wars over political and social ideologies many, many times."
Throughout history, religious authority was the ruling entity over "social and political ideologies". Arguably, even to this very day. So, the fundamental cause of the extremely large majority of war has been differences in religious ideology.
"Also, the attacks on Iraq/afghanistan have nothing to do with religion"
So, are you implying that our current occupation of Iraq has nothing to do with the actions of religious ideology of extremist religious zealots? Whether thats the true nature of the beast is irrelevant. The precept for the war in Iraq was sold as a reaction to religious zealots, not for politics or oil.
Sorry to anger you. I didn't realize you were religious. Now I know that you support and defend people's psychotic religious beliefs, I'll just ignore you. Sorry again for causing you any sort of trauma.
You haven't anger me one bit, man. I'm not religious in the slightest. I'm actually pretty disgusted in the state of religiosity here in America and worldwide. We have far too many people who hold their religious texts to be the inerrant "word of god". It divides the masses and we all know the old saying united we stand, divided we fall.
Don't take my criticisms too seriously but DO try to remember that religious dogma is, and always has been, the bane of mankind.
omg if u deagree with nofx then go tell ur god damn friends not poeple that understand this shit and as for the religon shit who fucking cares like it says religons r all fuald and beliving in god lol right on and if i belive in god i might just go worship a fucking closet monster soo poeple i am asking please stop the hate mail
This video is about realizing, as a human being, as someone that can rise up against society, and look what moraly is right, not socially. Comprehend that or not, thats up to you.
When it says a blind faith in god it is talking about Jihads, not cathollics. The reason for this is because in the original documents of their holy book, murder is not right. Jihads kill, thats what they stand for. Jihad translated means martyr. It's oxymoronic. Before you rant and rave, do research. thanks
Yeah, that's why the song says that the virtues of Christianity are wrong and that all religions are flawed. And if it really means that Jihad is wrong, why does it say that we're wrong to fight Jihad? You can try and defend this misinformed hack band, but in the end you'll just fail.
@timothyandelperson "The reason for this is because in the original documents of their holy book, murder is not right"...............The Bible says not to kill as well, but yet Catholics, Christians, and other religions that follow the bible, do murder other people.
ok so it seems to me, that its just you're ignorant on most levels that a simple mainstream punk band can even comprehend. (homosexuality is considered unholy by the way, read the holy bible.)
I'M ignorant? Excuse me? Show me a few good arguments supporting the statements made in that song, and then we'll talk. And it seems that you are just as ignorant as the damn band. First of all, homosexuality itself is not considered unholy. People are born gay, it's something they can't control. Homosexual RELATIONS are unholy. Second, that doesn't mean Catholics "hate" homosexuals. You, like so many others, jump to radical conclusions.
I have a problem with just about every word in it. I mean, what's wrong with Christianity's virtues? What's wrong with eating meat? What's wrong with the NRA? What's wrong with fighting Jihad? Besides that, he actually misinterprets some of the issues. Conservatives and Catholics don't "hate" homosexuals. And we're not saying you can't question the government, but the thing is that most people are "finding" problems that aren't there. And calling Coulter a "cunted-cunt" is just plain childish.
wats wrong with eating meat? ok thats a stupid question but the retarded one was wats wrong with the NRA. do u even know wat the nra is? its the national Rifel association. the last thing this world needs is weapons. u know theres other ways in solving problems than fighting. Maybe uve herd of Ghandi? Gosh has america became the muscle head of all nations?
Wiggum, do you realize that guns have helped to both create and protect our sovereignty as a nation? Maybe you'd like to explain how we could've ever defeated Nazism, Fascism, and the Soviet Union without weapons, or how you expect to defeat Jihadism without weapons? Oh, I know! Maybe we should all just commit mass suicide! After all, that's what your hero Ghandi said the Jews should've done in the concentration camps.
YA I KNOW RIGHT! ya the Air this nation breathes is guns. Like when We took over this land. To Defeat The Evil Indians who were out of controll and were begging us to rape and steal this land. we had no choice but to kill with our guns.good thing for the guns tho.
Hmm...it's kind of hard to steal land from people who didn't believe in ownership of land in the first place. And last I checked, the Spanish massacred Indians long before the Pilgrims landed. They should be grateful that the English came, because let's face it, their culture was strikingly undeveloped. They never built any lasting significant structures. They were essentially nomadic war tribes.
I never said that. I'm just saying that it's a myth that everything in North America was all fine and dandy until white people came along. Most Indian tribes didn't sit around smoking a peace pipe all day. They fought with and slaughtered each other. Meanwhile Europe was building machines and inventing new things. Y'know, actually working to improve the quality of life.
Ok before this gets into a huge political discussion, I'm ending this now. BUT, the point of this song, and slide show, is for people to realize there are two sides to everything. Society, war, and government, if you choose to ignore it, thats up to you, but ignorance is not always bliss.
or, unlike what right wing conspiracy thinks, there are people, like me, who do the research. I don't watch cnn, let alone more than maybe 30 mins of tv a day. No what I do is do the research. I agree green day are idiots, they don't know what they are talking about. It's not about getting a brain, obviously we all have one, its about expanding it, and being open to an issue that you may not want to see, so sorry if it offended you, but open your own eyes and look at the world around you.
Oh, I realize that not everyone is a blind follower and that some people actually do research. In fact, it's sometimes the people who do the research that scare me more, because if you do real research and still come to the conclusion that liberalism is right, then there's something wrong with you.
Yeah, here's my opinion: whoever wrote this song is a complete idiot with no understanding of the real world or the issues he brings up. He's just another one of the "rebellious" anti-Bush, anti-war, anti-religion zombies who let the media and pop culture form their opinion. "Oh, let's hate the war because CNN says we're only hurting people! Let's hate Bush because Green Day does! Let's hate Fox News everyone says that it's right wing propaganda!" Get a brain, people.
please...don't be ridiculous my friend...that's only music...and i think that nofx knows what they're talking about...i'm spanish and in europe everybody knows that USA is the biggest danger in the world...nofx get brain, my friend, and you and all the united state people should open your eyes...you're destroying the world

"Wars have been happening since the dawn of man."
Read carefully:
The underlying factor in the majority of ALL wars throughout history has been the clash of different religious ideologies.
I guess some people need to have it spelled out to them.....
