Re Joni Mitchell & Buddhism - I think that Buddhism is for people who are spiritual but find insufficient reason to believe in a personal deity - the assumption is that there are patterns & energies in existence, & the way to be happy is to knowingly put oneself in harmony with them - arguably not unlike Navajo beliefs - but the song Magdalene Laundries shows JM's intense bitterness toward RC Xianity, & religious hypocrisy & inhumanity in general - & of course she has a point

it's another level of music and hits you on every level. no one can touch her.

@cheeserules5419 I think we can both agree that her genius owes something to her inherited dna. We just disagree about how that brilliant dna system came about =p Many an atheist makes their peace with 'God' on their deathbed, so I think it would be arrogant of either of us to postulate about what may or may not happen in Joni's case. I don't propose to clog up this space with any more pointless conjecture, so I'll say goodbye :]

@cheeserules5419 But I suppose that, as someone who is religious, you're more inclined to believe in the thing that all evidence points *against* simply because it cannot be conclusively disproved. Anyway, I agree with you that Joni is a brilliant artist, and it does her a discredit to say that her talent is God-given. Her talent is natural genius and she deserves full credit for it.

@stufish4040 "Shine on the Catholic Church and the prisons that it owns. Shine on all the Churches that love less and less. ...Shine on mass destruction in some God's name."
- Joni Mitchell, Shine
I think she's made her opinion on religion pretty clear, and I think she's also displayed her indifference toward any sort of faith by saying that mass destruction is committed in "some God's name". (continued in next comment)
There aren't really enough superlatives in the dictionary to sum up this album. Brilliant on all fronts. Never tire of it - always amazed and awestruck by her wonderful (atheists look-away now) God-given talent!
