In my family The Beatles ARE bigger than Jesus. You can question God, Jesus, religion, say it's real or fake, and no one will judge you for your opinion, if you say you hate The Beatles- that is a deal breaker :) Seriously though, John was right, he didn't say they were BETTER, he just said that they were BIGGER, which is true. Alot of kids then and NOW care more about their favorite band than they do about religion. That's the truth. You don't have to like it, but, that's the way it is!

It's complete illogical rationalizing. In fact, the controversy stems from three major fallacies. (1)A category error in Division- arguing that the action of a single property (Lennon) represents the whole(The Beatles). (2) an attack on John Lennon personally as opposed to the statement he made (attacking the arguer, not the argument) And (3)attacking Lennon when he was simply no being literal (ad verecundiam)

I have to respect John Lennon though.
At least he gave his true opinion and is not afraid to tell people what he thought.

okaaay, let's every body calm down.
he obviously didn't mean that he thought they were better then jesus, or aaaanything like that. he was just saying they were popular. which is true. and you also can't deny that youth are more interested in music, tv, or whatever else then religion. it's not something that appeals to most teenagers.
*by the way, i'm a christian. but i'm sensible enough to not jump to ridiculous conclusions.

Those same members of the press who loved to be with them just a year ago were then just itching to nail John (if not all The Beatles) to crosses. What John said about the status of Christ in Britian at that time was correct. He just made a mistake in how he said it.
