| "Religion Dictates to you what to do, how to live your life, and how to treat others. Live life the way you want to live life, dont sell yourself to a book, especially when the ideas it sells you are over 2000 years old." -i'd like to add that it was fucked with edited during that time by kings and the like. some parts were even tooken out entirely. | |

| The song is specifically slating Rastafarianism, on the grounds that the 'saviour' of the Rastafarian religion was supposedly Haille Sellaise, who was going to lead the Ethiopian people to the promised land (Zion/Israel - which isnt that great a place anyway). But Haille Sellaise never did, and is now dead - yet the religion lives on for some reason. And like all songs about rastafarianism (although usually pro-rasta), its in the reggae stylee. Top dog! | |

| If there is a god, how come every daily news is reporting something about murder, war, violence, rape, suicide, and all forms of sufferings in this world..Yeah, someone will tell me to look at the sky, the beauty of the stars at night, the beauty of the sunset and all and ask me to tell that no god is responsible for it..and yeah maybe someone is responsible for that,but i wanna say fuck you to him for all the sorrow here on earth that he could have taken care of..i don't know, it's just that all my life i've suffered from a great amount of sadness and sufferings and that happiness seams so unfit for me even though i've always called for his help..where is he???now i don't think he even exist and that there's no point of even believing in one.. | |

| this song is about how religion is basically a lie. the whole basis behind most people's faith is just a joke, and what the bible promises as a paradise on earth is a warfield. | |

| "actually, it hasn't been altered at all. comparisons between the bible today and the original scrolls show very, VERY little difference. basically just translations that could be better." how about you check your facts before you post shit like you know. Besides the bible being complete bullshit in the first place alot of things didnt even get into the bible. they picked and choosed what to and what not to put in. Anyways we might as well be arguing over harry potter because they have about the same amount of realism. | |

| I agree with basically everyone. To add on to what bluetears said, yes rasatafarianism is spawned from judaism and christianity. People don't really believe half the stuff it says. They just think Bob Marley is cool, like reggae, and want to smoke pot. But, Bob Marley is cool and reggae is awesome, rasta or not. And pot is just as illegal for rastas, so you don't need a religion for it. | |

| i know people that are totally opposed to religion but love bob marley and his views and just think rastafarian is cool, not realising it is actually a religion spawning from judaism. it is good to see propagandhi referring to the "amalgamation of jewish scriptures and christian thought.." that rastafarianism actually is. | |
