Not for everyone. As a person who often questions the existence of a god, I've never questioned the sound principals in the teachings of a very good man named Jesus.

beautiful.

Thank you for this terrific piece. You put so much care into the choice of images. Shockingly I never heard this song until today. I might take exception with the inclusion of Al Sharpton among the images of the charlatan Christians. Perhaps at one point he deserved this but I find that he has "seen the light," as it were, and is definitely on "The Side of the Rebel Jesus."

As a mere human that has grown weary of the anthropomorphism of deity and the elitism of Christ's message... this song always rang true... There maybe stones cast in the visual representation, they are but symbolic judgements. Love forms it's own symbols... this is how the spirit communicates. This is why I always appreciate Jackson Browne's substance and style though rarely his politics.

My response to this video took me a little off guard. As a leftie Evangelical (a bit lonely but maybe getting less so) I found myself tearing up there at the end... One small caveat... the inclusion of Rick Warren... he has (unlike some of the others) really tried to impact social injustices with both his money and his mouth. HIV-AIDS in Africa in particular... but whatever. Great job, and thank you for turning me on to this song (which I'd not heard before today).

WOW this is my holiday card. Thank you for making this. My sentiments exactly. Beautiful, haunting and true.

As an atheist, I must say that this song is one of the few places where I've ever been able to find truly common ground with Christians.
