Religion Poisons Everything: Justin McRoberts

Religion Poisons Everything
From the album "Deconstruction"
to be released March 2008

You say that religion, it poisons everything
But didn't science give to us the bomb?
And our politicians, didn't they write the script
That told who they panned to drop it on?

It seems so easy to point the finger
It's just as easy to point the gun
So tell me, brother; is it in you
To pull the trigger now and kill someone?

You're on a mission to rescue humanity
From this disease that steals the heart and mind
But am I worth saving? Am I worth anything?
And tell me, brother, how did you decide?

You curse the very ground upon which you're walking
To prove the point that you're no longer walking on the ground
If it's absurdity you find in my believing
Tell me what is more absurd than believing in your doubt?

this guy is a pansy

lol

idiot, there is no god..

[justinmcroberts]

@fecesforjesus420 I do pushups sometimes. Does that help?

Also, I don't call people "pansy" over the internet,.. but perhaps insulting folks semi-anonymously, without having to personally account for your words is reserved for tough guys.. like you... tough guy.

@justinmcroberts i don't care about your feelings. its that easy =)

[justinmcroberts]

@fecesforjesus420 Oh, I wasn't hurt.. but thanks for your lack of concern about my "feelings." I was just pointing out that your insults only prove your inability to sustain an actual argument... no offense intended.. I'm just say'n.. sorry if that hurts your feelings.

Nice song but religion IS the root of all evil. The No.1 cause of wars and death by conflict. The Torah and Bible and Koran are about genocide, murder, infancticide, stoned people to death, apartheid, even slavery - have a read of Moses, Abraham, Leviticus, the Jihad.

How do half-intelligent people believe in that mythical, fictional nonsense - angels, afterlife with the imaginary boss, virgin birth, miracles, etc? RELIGION = FRAUD.

[justinmcroberts]

@goldstead Interestingly, I'd be willing to bet that your conclusion about religion being the no. 1 cause of wars etc.. is something you take on the authority of someone along the lines of Hitchens himself. That's fine, so long as you realize that you're doing the same thing christians do with Jesus.. or the Bible. Unless you believe Hitchens to be infallible.. in which case.. well. sheesh. That's CRAZY talk.

Science also gave you your computer, YouTube, your guitar, recording gear, video camera, electricity, and lush hair conditioner.

The religious can't WAIT to get their hands on the bomb, for it's the best tool to drive home their message. They can say, "Look! I told you so!"

The bomb is not evil. The human agency behind its use will be.

Guns don't kill. Shooters do.

Hey Justin. This is an awesome song and you are a great artists, one of my favorites actually. I really appreciate your voice and character in your music and especially in this song. I hope you continue to produce music and share it with others because its a real blessing to those around you, even if it doesnt seem that way to others sometimes. So thank you

[waflhouse]

love it Justin..Love the album the song, the style, all of it.  Since I downloaded this album I have listened to it a ton. Thanks for bringing some real thought to music.

@CondorDM I don't hate science at all. I (heart) science. Point is that there is a fair share of blame to go around between the large institutions of humanity. Religion, Science, Politics, etc... Blaming "religion" alone and placing "science" in its place of authority is just as dehumanizing as anything religion can do.

[justinmcroberts]

@TheOtherSide100 I don't use conditioner, but way to reinforce your argument with insults. I didn't really feel the force of your thoughts until you ripped me. Now I get it.

[WRALDocPhotog]

Justin, just discovering your music. Love your style, your heart, your lyrics. Keep up it, dude.

[CondorDM]

If your a person who hates science for whatever reasons still have not spoken a word against atheism.

I understand this is spouse to be a crack at atheism, how weak really?.

Science gave us a bomb?, if your alive passed the age of 30 you can thank science in the medical field for that two jackass.
