Ok, I've found this clip. It's different from how I remembered it. As I thought the language is strong and there are allusions to violent imagery.

Love it Sniff :thumbup:

It got me thinking that it was a silly title of my thread. Of course its a symbol of evil, they wouldn't have nailed Jesus to it otherwise. Are you still classed as a Human Being if you are conceived through immaculate conception? No offence intended.

I can see how my use of the word bastardo may have come across as crass and infantile. That's only a small part of my character, honest. :angel: :D :thumbup:

Not the sort of post I expect to read on this website.

VHTM, as you have edited your post since my post, I will also edit. The fact that you put a disclaimer in your post (no offence intended) indicates that you thought it might be offensive, but posted it anyway. Just a bit of advice. Christianity is a 'turn the other cheek' religion, keep well away from criticising Islam.

Apologies if i hurt you John. It was meant as a light hearted observation rather than a criticism. The title of my thread was in relation to all the abuse being done in the Church/Gods name. When you have systematic allegations of that magnitude it does leave the faith open to criticism and ridicule and rightly so imo. Practice what you preach.

My name it is nothing, my age it means less
The country I come from is a part of the Free West
I was taught and brought up there, its laws to abide
And that the land that I live in has God on its side
Oh the history books tell it, they tell it so well
The cavalries charged, the Indians fell
The cavalries charged, the Indians died
For the country was young with God on its side
Oh, the first World War, it came and it went
The reason for fighting, I never could get
But I learned to accept it, accept it with pride
For you don't count the dead when God's on your side
And then the second World War, it came to an end
We forgave the Germans and now we are friends
Though they murdered six million, in the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too, have God on their side
But now we have weapons of chemical dust
And if fire them we're forced to, why then fire them we must
One push of the button and a shot the worldwide
And you never ask questions when God's on your side
Though many a long hour I've thought on this
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss
But I can't think for you, you will have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot had God on his side
And now as I leave you, I'm weary as hell
The confusion I'm feelin', there ain't no tongue can tell
The words fill my head and drop to the floor
That if God's on our side, he'll stop the next war

Another example of despicable behavior by men claiming to be close to God. Closer to Dogs imo.
