Lyrics:
My lover's got humor
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshiped her sooner
If the Heavens ever did speak
She's the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week
"We were born sick", you heard them say it
My church offers no absolutes
She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom"
The only Heaven I'll be sent to
Is when I'm alone with you
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
A-, Amen, Amen, Amen
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
If I'm a pagan of the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the Goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
Drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
Oh, oh, Amen, Amen, Amen
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life

People don't read, do not know how to write, do not have critical thinking and do not want to think, so no they do not understand books, art, music or poetry! Of course they can't even bother to read the lines are talking about lies and knives. Some people can't even google for two seconds to check if something is real or not. Of course they hear the word God or church and they think that is religious. Some people still think Einstein believed in God despite his multiple attempts to explain himself!

The meaning of the song if you didn't get it: My lover's got humor. She's the giggle at a funeral. - My lover (the church) has a sense of humor. She (the church) laughs when people die. Knows everybody's disapproval. I should've worshiped her sooner. - (the church) knows everyone disapproves of me, hates me. I should have worshipped (sacrificed) my life to her (the church) sooner. If the Heavens ever did speak. She's the last true mouthpiece. - If God ever was real and spoke to humans. She (the church) is the last sign that God exists. Every Sunday's getting more bleak. A fresh poison each week. - Every Sunday, the day when people go to church, is getting more dark and painful to live through. A fresh layer of poison and pain is applied at the church every week. "We were born sick", you heard them say it. - "We were born gay", you heard the church say we have a disease. My church offers no absolutes. She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom". - My church doesn't allow any impurity and is merciless against those who are considered impure. She (the church) tells me "The bedroom is meant for worshipping God, not for having gay sex." The only Heaven I'll be sent to. Is when I'm alone with you. - I'm not allowed in heaven because I'm gay. That's why the only heaven (joy, happiness, paradise) I will ever experience is when I am alone with my gay partner. I was born sick, but I love it. Command me to be well. - I was born gay and I'm proud of it. Force me to be cured. A-, Amen, Amen, Amen. Take me to church. - Spiritual affirmation. Take me to the church to be sacrificed as a cure for my homosexuality. I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife. - I will be slaughtered and sacrificed like a dog, because the church doesn't consider LGBT people human beings, at the shrine of your lies - referring to the altar and the church glorifying the lies of the bible. I will tell you that I'm gay, and you can prepare the weapon you will use to slaughter me for it. Offer me that deathless death. Good God, let me give you my life. - Offer me access to death without death, also known as heaven, let me into heaven. Good God, murder me and sacrifice me. If I'm a pagan of the good times. My lover's the sunlight. - If I'm an outcast from today's society. My lover (the church) is the sunlight that will burn me to ashes. To keep the Goddess on my side. She demands a sacrifice. - To appease the Goddess (the church) and stay on her good side. She (the church) demands that my impure, homosexual life is ended by being sacrificed to God, referring to homophobic biblical verses like Leviticus 20:13. Drain the whole sea. Get something shiny. - Referring to draining the Holy See, the Vatican. Destroy the Vatican and take back the money and gold that their temples are coated with. Something meaty for the main course. That's a fine looking high horse. - The Vatican, and grandiose cathedrals and churches in general, are a rich and meaty meal for the people. That's a fine looking high horse, also known as moral high-ground. This critiques the moral high-ground the church holds over people, by hoarding wealth and building gold-plated churches while telling the worshippers of God to be humble and immaterialist. And by preaching love and tolerance despite discriminating against LGBT people. What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful. - What does the Vatican have to offer to people? We have a lot of poor and vulnerable believers of God who are starving because of all the money the church has fraudulently scammed and stolen from its believers to line their own greedy pockets. That looks tasty. That looks plenty. This is hungry work. - Referring to butchering the Vatican, and all wealthy churches and cathedrals in general, and feeding (returning) it to the poor and starving whose money was used to build them. Chorus repeated. No masters or kings when the ritual begins. There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin. - It's irrelevant who you are, if you're homosexual, you're still being sacrificed in the ritual. There is nothing sweeter or more innocent than our gentle sin of homosexuality, referring to there being nothing wrong with homosexuality. In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene. Only then I am human. Only then I am clean. - In the horrible acts of violence and oppression that religious people carry out against LGBT people in the name of God. Only then, when I have been murdered and sacrificed to God, I am considered a clean human being instead of a dog.

Thanks, wasn't excepting to learn something/or read something insightful

[@liuelsisay9856]

Well description i didn't understand it like that

[@arlynnecumberbatch1056]

whats funny is that levictus 20 13 isnt actually referring to homosexuality. if you know how ancient worlds were like, theres a lot of umm lets say some group of people decided to make out with ppl under 18 which is very common at the time, therefore the verse is ACTUALLY MISTRANSLATED (from bias probably) and its actually referring to pedophilia.

[@SlavaRodionov]

Everything is predetermined even this comment

[@fatimaabdallah2570]

Um no definitely not lol....but I guess you can think that if you would like to...your interpretation is a huge leap and a perfect representation of how the church has put its own spin on their clear hypocrisy through the years.

+Little Pinch of Ginger There was a time when I was younger when seeing two young men kissing would have made me angry. I am not sure why. My family was never really into religion. Maybe it was the small rural community upbringing. I dont know. I am of the opinion these days that "more love=better world". Every time I have had the chance to, I voted yes for marriage equality. How ever when I see two young men kissing it still gives me the creeps. I cant help it, its my honest gut reaction. I am still a work in progress.

Ive never understood why humans can hate other humans based on their preferences, it disgusts me since they arent doing anything wrong let them live their lives no one lives forever so no one should have the right to make someones short life miserable its just i wish people could realize that. The reason im not religous is because some things certain religions see as wrong are just absurd or wrong themselves. Beliefs should unite people not break them apart. Sorry for this i just needed to get that off my chest

[@lolal.4790]

I'm a Christian, I studied my whole life in a Catholic Private School but I've always been a supporter of gays. It's kind of hard choosing between your beliefs and your heart, but at the end of the day I see it this way: everyone has the right to do whatever makes them happy. That includes being gay, straight, bi, trans, eating a shit ton of pizza or veggies. Do whatever makes you happy, because that's what God sent us here, to be happy. We are all human beings with feelings and our sexual preference shouldn't matter. And weirdly enough, the religion teacher I had in HS said the same thing. He respected gays and just said: God loves all of us, no matter what. He didn't bash on them nor insulted them, he just said that it's their choice and if they are happy about it then that was okay. And thanks to him my faith in my religion was restored, knowing that there are Christians out there who also believe the same. Not all of us Christians are crazy fanatics, trust me. I support gays and they are just amazing human beings. I just wanted to put that out there.

[@56Valo]

"Your beliefs and your heart." As a former Christian, I can tell you they are one and the same. I struggled a lot due to the contradictions between my faith and my morals. Don't let anyone else tell you what is morally right or wrong. Listen to their reasons why something might be good or bad, and make your own decision through logic and reason, which are entirely and surprisingly applicable tools in regards to questions of morality. As it happens, you've already done this and picked a divergent path from the bible. My advice to you is to take a good, hard look at the Bible, with the mindset of a scientist. That doesn't mean looking for reasons why it's right, or why it's good, but looking for the flaws. When I was a Christian, I eventually became an atheist because I said to myself "If God is perfect, then I should be able to hold him up to a perfect standard. How can he fault me for that?" I may not be an omnipotent, perfect judge of extradimensional beings, but I think it's fair to say that a perfect entity does not command that gays be put to death, or murder someone for a bit of semen hitting the ground, or slaughter children by the score, which the Christian god did (in the last case, on several occasions!). Your HS religion teacher lied to you. God does bash gays in the most literal sense. He commands you bash them to death with rocks! This is why "extremists" are sometimes called "fundamentalists." They are just going by what the Bible or Quran says. That's in the Bible, that's what it says to do. Jesus did not get rid of the Old Law, in fact he said explicitly that not one jot nor iota of it would pass until the end of time itself. Now, I don't expect that you'll become an atheist just because of this, but hopefully now you know why atheists and anti-theists like myself often say "oh bullshit" when Christians say theirs is a religion of love. Your religion is based upon the bible and the bible is full of hatred and violence perpetrated or supported by an egotistical, malevolent deity.

[@TheSquarehead1999]

You represent how any religion should be, but unfortunately many are not. I don't believe in God, I used to (still go to a catholic school), but feel like if I were to believe I would be like you, Jesus said to love your neighbour and do to others as you have them do to you, many Christians seem to forget that.

[@TigerLily2212]

Thank you for saying that. I'm Christian myself and all I see and hear are about how all Christians hate gays and are prejudiced. But we aren't. There are some people that take it to the extreme saying "this is how it is in the Bible and this is how it should be. If it's not in the Bible it's bad", and there's others that are more open to ideas and don't judge. I'm one of those people that don't. Everyone has an opinion, everyone has the choice to live their lives how they want to. I hate how people say that Christianity is being enforced and that no one has the right to their own religion. But anyways, that k you for saying this. And I like that teacher you had. :) I also support gays and gay rights.

[@destefz4810]

There are millions of people right now basing their decisions on the belief that there is a God, thus descriminating against homosexuals and denying them their rights. I don't know if there's a God and as an agnostic, I don't care. I do know there are homosexuals on this planet and people are disrespecting them and acting against them, very often in the name of God. I have a very negative stance on faith, but that's not what we're here to discuss. You want to believe and you have every right to believe and in fact, if anyone were to discreminate against a Christian or a Muslim or a Jew I would react just as passionately against it as I do when people discreminate against homosexuals. We are all equals, living in democracy. If a man wants to marry another man, let him do it. If they want to raise a kid, let them do it. They're not harming anybody by their union and the kid is better off with two dads than with no dads. Same thing goes for lesbians of course, or transgenders or what have you. You can think of it as a sin, you can pray for their salvation if you want, but don't stop them from doing something that is not harming anybody. I respect religion, but religion has to respect me as well. You can think of me as a sinner and I can think of you as a fool. Don't come bursting into my home telling me how to live my life and I won't come bursting into your church telling you that I think you're wrong. P.S.: These are the views I have as a heterosexual man raised in Catholicism. I became an agnostic/atheist after 5 years of careful thought and consideration. I have no gay friends, I have no gay sibling. I just care about other people.

[@WickedWisdom55]

nikostz52 If you don't care whether god exists or not, you are an apatheist, not an agnostic.

[@nikostz52]

DId you seriously take up internet space to discuss semantics? Ok, I'll indulge you; Agnostic comes from the greek word "gnosis" which means knowledge and putting an "a" in the beggining is the equivalent of "non" in greek. I said "I don't know if tere's a God", therefore "agnostic" fits. I also mentioned "I don't care" and that makes me also "apatheist". I also don't believe in God, which makes me a "non-believer". I also think that according to data available, there is no God, which also makes me an "atheist" or a "non-theist". I'm also opposed to a lot of stuff about religion, which also makes me an "antitheist". To sum up: I am not religious. Agnostic is more accurate (and atheist is the second most accurate) to describe my relationship with God.

[@npullen9663]

nikostz52 Good on you!

[@annavolkova3045]

nikostz52 I agree with you , man!

[@nikostz52]

You can have your opinion, but if your opinion ignores facts, we will criticize it. The Adam and Eve scenario is by all scientific proof just a story and Catholics even admit that it's a religius tale and not a historical truth. It's not a matter of belief, it's a matter of proof in that case that contradicts this belief, so the belief is non-sensical at this point. You can believe that God guides nature and evolution and has set up the rules for everything, I have nothing to argue against that. Also, being gay is not a choice and even if it is somewhat a choice, it's not a conscious choice. If it was a matter of impresionism, then why are we seeing gay people in Muslim countries where such a choice means death? Nobody has such a strong preference for something. Also, if you do an online search, you'll find various studies where gay people had no neurological sexual response to people of the opposite sex. In fact, they responded to the opposite sex the same way straight people responded to the same sex. You have good intentions, but I think you might be slightly misinformed. It is not an illness, it is a variation, same way as being black, or being lactose intolerant or being blonde. Also there's lots of evidence that genetic factors are involved in the matter, which would suggest that you're born this way. One think you're definitely right about is raising children. Society might not be ready for this and the children will suffer from descrimination. But it is in our hands to change this. Anyway, I'm happy to find religius people who think like you.

+abigail hinkle Whatever you interpret being in it. Hozier left that upto us.

[@danielgehring7437]

+abigail hinkle You know, the more I watch this video, the more I'm pretty sure it's gotta be dynamite and the video cuts off a split second before it blows. Let me back that up, even. When writing a story, there's an adage about Chekov's Gun, that everything in the story (especially a 4-minute one) has to serve a purpose; moreover, you would certainly think that the writers of such a dramatic scene would adhere to this rule. Thus we should look at what the box actually does or represents. Now, the whole video is spent showing how these two men love each other, so there's no reason to use the box as a token of that love. It also can't be a macguffin because nobody wants it and even the people who's responsibility it is bury it. It can't be opened, so it's not a valuable thing, and is treated thusly. From this, we can tell that it has to have an impact on the story by itself, not as a proxy for an emotion or valuable thing. Yet, in the story, it does nothing, and all it does is get thrown in a fire; so we must assume it does whatever it's going to do after the scene has ended. From there, we must assume that whatever is in the box must interact with fire, because that's the only thing it interacts with (unless someone is going to pull it out of there, which is highly unlikely and would make no sense); again, it has to have a logical and useful effect on the story, so it _must_ be reactive, and the only thing I can think of that would A) Interact with fire B) Not be ruined by being pounded on with a hammer and crowbar C) Not go off immediately would be a big old insulated box of TNT.

[@ashanab.7105]

Ughh I'm a Christain and I have to say some of these comments are just annoying. Hozier madeclear in one of his interviews explaining what he wrote the song about. But in MY own personal opinion based of the song and video, I belivie the song is about a gay christian who believes he was "born sick" and pleads to god to fix him or accept him for who he is. But then towards the middle of the song he says "I was born sick but I love it" which means he stops praying for forgiveness and finally accepts himself. But if you seen the video after his long journey of trying to be accepted and finally accepting himself (and even having another person accept him aka his partner in the video) it still ends badly with members of the Church killing his partner. Guys he doesn't hate the church or is "making fun of your religon" he is simply singing a beautiful song about what happens nearly everyday. I'm a christian and I even know this. To all you christains out there, whether you like it or not there are some christains (or members of the church) who will go out of their way to kill homosexuals or "exterminate gays". As much I hate this, this is sadly true. The fact that people are willing to go as far as to murdering someone just because of who they are is sickening. God created everyone just as they are, which means he made a person with disabilites born that way, or a person with cancer, born with cancer and most importantly if a person is gay he created them that way. So if a person is born gay there is nothing they can do about it, he created them that way. But being gay is indeed a sin. Inever understood why since I always belived god created homosexuals that way. That just confuses me but anyway I wish people would stop bashing Hozier for making this song. All he did was brought a true story for many people, to life in a brilliant way. I understand if people disagree with homosexuality and go around speaking about how it is wrong, hey everyone is entitled to their own opinion and freedom of speech but the fact someone could be filled with so much hate and willing to kill someone for something they can't control and more importantly has done nothing to hurt you is disgusting. Yes i'm a Christain and yes I accept homosexuals and if you don't accept homosexuals that's fine by me, that doesn't make you a bad person. But my God is a loving god, so I will be a loving person and accept and love people for who they are and not hate them and try to change them. Here's a quote for you to think about "Homophobic people are trying to make other people homophobic but homosexuals aren't trying to make people other homosexuals." Feel free to add your own opinions but I've told my piece and just hope there are more people in the world who choose love over hate. EDIT: Guys this is all my personal opinion on the song and sexuality, none of what i'm saying is connected to Hozier's explanation and description of the song himself.

[@Swilliams365]

*Sigh* alright guys, i'm gonna go ahead and address some shit because many of you need it. First off, to all of you saying the song doesn't match the video; to all of you saying "oh, he's singing to a woman, so this is stupid," and "oh why does everything have to be gay? the song isn't even about gay people": the song is about everything the church oppresses. The "woman" he refers to is not an actual woman, but a concept, which is paganism, which he talks about in the song. "If i'm a PAGAN of the good time's, my lover's (Lover is) the sunlight, keep the goddess on my side, she demands a sacrifice." He just said "since i'm pagan, the lover I've been referring to as "her" throughout this whole song is the sunlight. obviously, he doesn't mean the sun literally, but life in general, with no afterlife or spirituality in the sense of religion besides the giver of life, the sun. Paganism is the religion of the divinity of humanity, the earth, and life, and Paganism revolves around female deities, or--you guessed it--"goddesses" instead of a male god, which is why he refers to paganism as a woman." in Paganism women are worshiped as gateways into heaven, not god. given women are the gateway to heaven in paganism, he refers to paganism as a woman, and also since sex is revered as a gateway as well, no matter with whom, and the pagans believe they find holiness through bonding with another human sexually, he says "she (paganism) tells me 'worship in the bedroom.' the only heaven i'll be sent to is when i'm alone with you." "my church (paganistic church) has no absolutes, she (paganism) tells me worship in the bedroom." This song pertains to everything that is found as a sin in Christianity. "we were born sick, you heard them say it." homosexuality is perhaps the biggest perversion or sickness in Christianity, which believes that all sin is inherited from Adam, and everyone is born a sinner. this song has to do with EVERYTHING Christianity disapproves of and oppresses over, and homosexuality is highlighted here because it is nearly the biggest controversy amongst Christians and Atheists. the song DEFINITELY fits the video.

[@Dermacrosis]

[@xboxxraygamer6123]

How we interpret a song does not mean that is what was meant by the artist. Ask different people what the box stands for and you will get different answers. Hozier has, so far, never given an answer when asked about it other than he wants to leave it to our interpretation. He wrote it after he broke up with his then girlfriend. Therefore he is straight or even bisexual but so far I have only ever read about him being straight.

We've a lot of starving faithful That looks tasty That looks plenty This is hungry work Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Offer me my deathless death Good God, let me give you my life Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Offer me my deathless death Good God, let me give you my life No masters or kings when the ritual begins There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene Only then I am human Only then I am clean Oh, oh, Amen, Amen, Amen Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life

I told mom I wanna see the video and she said it's very sad, because it depicts what the society does to people, but that it's okay that the video shows gay guys. My mom is 53 and grew up in a world where gays were treated as disgusting. I'm so proud of her for being an awesome human being and accepting people as they are, even though she was taught otherwise.

I love how people are saying that they hate homosexuals because of one reason. Religion. Christianity to be exact. I have no idea how people think that 2 people that loves each other is a bad thing. If God actually thinks that, he's no worser than the devil. Btw, hating on a community of innocent people doesn't mean you're being sinless. In fact, if God judges you on how good you are, your ass will be sent straight to the pits of hell.

[@Dermacrosis]

Religion is the convenient scape goat. They just hate difference and look for a place to justify it so they can say "I am not hateful but my.......says it is a sin therefore my judgement is justified". They conveniently for get the rest of the Levitican laws that they are breaking. This gives them an excuse to feel better about themselves and not accept personal responsibility. The also miss out Matthew 7:1-5 which tells them not to judge.

Honestly these comments are really and truly interesting to read. You hear a lot from homophobes, Christians and atheists. My favourite comments are the ones claiming they don't have a problem with homosexuality but still think it's a sin. Now I'm gay and an atheist myself, but I think I know a little something about the bible, but I'm not exactly too sure. Your Jesus Christ died for your/our sins. Bc of this all the sins in the past before him would've been forgiven, but sins in the future would still be made. He would have to die over and over and over again JUST for our sins. So Jesus died for our past, present and FUTURE sins. Meaning that eating pork, lobster, being gay or even masturbating wouldn't send us to hell. And a religious friend of mine said that the rule of gays being stoned to death was in the Old Testament. The Old Testament was strict and had ridiculous rules and even barbaric and sexist rules.thats why there is a New Testament. Less strict and better to live with.

Also a list of other sins I know that are condemned as normal: Haircuts Wearing two different fabrics Eating lobster Masturbating Eating pork Not accepting others Short hair Tattoos Piercings. Happy sinning!

I was born sick and this "sickness" that people are trying to "medicate' by telling us that we will go to hell or that our god doesn't love us us fucked up. It breaks my heart that I'll have to keep this a secret from my parents. But because their lives are so invested in the bible and the simple sentence "man shall not lay with man" I won't have parents to talk to all the time about my future girlfriend/wife and how she wants to meet them one day, or have kids or move closer to home and what not. I am an african-american lesbian woman and I love everyone for who they are. Race Religion Sexuality Beliefs Doesn't change who we are at heart. #loveislove 🌈 👭👬👫 We are all human

[@billiey36]

You say you need to keep your orientation secret from your parents, but you also say your mom found some messages on your phone. Does she realize you're a lesbian? Either way, there are plenty of other people you can talk to who will understand and support you. You need to be true to yourself because it's the only way you can be true to others. You may have to do it without your parents, and I know that must be difficult, but move ahead with your life and let them fall into whatever other place they belong. If they are not there for you, find people who are. They're the ones who deserve to have you in their life.

To those of you calling Christians out on hating sexuality other than straight, I as a Christian say that seeing someone hate someone else for something as simple as this sickens me. No where in the Bible does it say to hate non-straight sexualities or anyone for that matter. We are called to attempt to "plant seeds" in people's lives, so that God actually "converts" them. I have multiple bisexual friends, and a very close gay friend. We are told to hate the sin, not the sinner. Heck, I pray for everyone from my pastor, to every member of ISIS and other extremist groups. Hey, I even try to pray for Satan and his demons. I don't understand it, but it's what I'm called to do. You guys have a blessed day.

+Gracie-Mae Urie while i don't disagree with you, you are wrong about "it doesn't say it is wrong." "You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination."Chapter 18 verse 22 "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them."Chapter 20 verse 13 (both leviticus)

[@crackpipecharmbracelet]

+GamerNato Okay, yes maybe it doesn't say it is right, But like I said, even though I am Christian, I still support it. Let someone love who they want to love as long as they're happy. Catholicism is similar to Christianity so even if I were Catholic, I would still support it. SO yeah.

[@1stSuaria]

+GamerNato The question is are you actually going to support a passage that says to kill another human being for something they cannot help?

[@jacobself1920]

+Elizabeth Putnam That does bring up the question, why would anyone believe in a book, despite being written 2000 years ago, which literally states straight out, no ambiguity "I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, she must be silent." It still baffles me how people can possibly place their trust in an out of date, barbaric text; which on the surface preaches love and understanding, but spews hate and suffering. Of course, I believe that one man's faith is up to him, but don't sign me up God. “So the man took his concubine and sent her outside to them, and they raped her and abused her throughout the night, and at dawn they let her go. At daybreak the woman went back to the house where her master was staying, fell down at the door and lay there until daylight. When her master got up in the morning and opened the door of the house and stepped out to continue on his way, there lay his concubine, fallen in the doorway of the house, with her hands on the threshold. He said to her, ‘Get up; let’s go.’ But there was no answer. Then the man put her on his donkey and set out for home.” “In the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in their own persons the due penalty for their error.” “Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel.” “Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.”

[@thesheepthatwentmooo]

Ahhhh, come on guys - it's an absolutely incredible song with a great tune and the video seems to carry a powerful message. Jesus is most likely rocking out to it right now. I genuinely thought it was impossible not to love this song - I guess bigotry doesn't enjoy good music either.

WHO DOESNT GET IT +thesheepthatwentmoo ITS A SONG ABOUT BEING GAY YOU THINK JESUS WOULD LIKE THIS SONG! ITS A BAD SONG ALL THE PEOPLE THAT ARE GAY I CANT STAND IT WHY DO PEOPLE SAY JESUS IS LIKING THIS SONG!

[@eek6583]

CAUSE GOD LIKES YOU FOR YOU NOT BECAUSE YOU ARE STRAIGHT . WE ARE ALL DAM HUMAN AND IM NOT LESBIAN BUT DAM GUYS ALL THIS BS JUST BECAUSE A GUY DATES A GUY OR A GIRL DATES A GIRL . THEY ARENT DIFFERENT. Its like you like pineapple but someone else doesnt.. doesnt make that person different they just have a different taste . PEOPLE WHY DONT YOU THINK BEFORE YOU CALL SOMETHING 'GAY' like its NOT bad so just think or stfu .

[@rosettastoned9843]

skittleswithlove angel The song isn't about being gay that's just an example. It's about living your life unafraid of the ambiguous judgment of a higher power. With God behind you or not, in the end you only have yourself to answer for. Don't live your life begging him for mercy, and spiting him when mercy isn't granted. To me the song is saying that you don't need the umbilical cord of religion to live your life, you have the power to stand upright in the tidal waves on your own.

[@Harveell]

KZbin comments are bound to suck for eternity. If you scrolled down hoping to see some cool stuff, scroll back up, listen to the song again or go back to whatever you were doing. You might cry out of anger for the shitfest that youtube comments are whenever there is a controversial subject going on in the video, so listen to me.

@Irina Popa hah.... your funny. None of what you said is true. Democrats are not "sociopaths" And the whole "abortion is bad they are killing poor babies!!!" That's fucking dumb. When a woman can abort, the embryo isnt even a fucking fetus yet. Its not alive, and its not even a human yet, just a ball of cells. So, your not 'ripping the life out of a baby' because it's not a baby. It's not anything yet. And they definitely dont "decapitate" baby's. That's just fucking insane. So maybe do some research before you go flapping that fat ugly mouth of yours.

[@marcelbischof2606]

@Irina Popa uuum, I'm from Canada and I don't think 6,7, and 8 month old babies are decapitated here, neither do I think they are in the US. I also don't think thta happens in Ukrane.

religion splits us apart more than brings us together.

[@Dermacrosis]

We split ourselves up and then look for excuses so we can pass the blame. "It's not my personal opinion but......" when it is their personal opinion, "I have nothing against X, but......" when they do have something against whatever "X" is. If religion didn't exist we would use something else as the excuse or ctreate religion like we did in the first place. It is this passing the blame thing that seems to be innate in us as a species that we have to deal with or it will just continue under different banners.

[@HalfBitCard]

Declan Dmitriev Religion has done nothing to anyone. People choose to not follow God, and they choose what they want. Personally religion is the best path for me. It's happy, has a happy ending, kinda. I mean in the end (from my view) everyone who doesn't follow God will be in hell forever and followers will live with God. Ok?

I'm a queer Episcopalian. Just know the Episcopal church loves you. You are beloved children of God and anyone who is violent and cruel to queer people in going against the teachings of the Lord. Being Queer is not evil. You are a beautiful image of God. Queer love is holy. Those who live in hate and judge and condemn others, will thusly be judged by Christ. Vengeance belongs to the Lord.
