YOU SEE,


When I was young and they packed me off to school
and taught me how not to play the game,
I didn't mind if they groomed me for success,
or if they said that I was a fool.
So I left there in the morning
with their God tucked underneath my arm --
their half-assed smiles and the book of rules.
So I asked this God a question
and by way of firm reply,
He said -- I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.
So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares):
before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers --
I don't believe you:
you had the whole damn thing all wrong --
He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.
Well you can excomunicate me on my way to Sunday school
and have all the bishops harmonize these lines --
how do you dare tell me that I'm my Father's son
when that was just an accident of Birth.
I'd rather look around me -- compose a better song
`cos that's the honest measure of my worth.
In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me,
as you lick the boots of death born out of fear.
I don't believe you:
you had the whole damn thing all wrong --
He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.


He's the kind you

SPEAK
LIVE
SHINE;-)

I'm not an enemy:-)

I can respect that you think for yourself, faith is not something we should be force-fed. I'm unsure, however, what the prayer is about. Cool, you don't believe God should exist only on Sundays, you and me both. You lost me at accident of birth and continued to baffle me with mention of licking death boots.

Listen. I'm going to make this easy. I will list three questions, in hopes you will answer them in a clear and consise manner. Here we go.....

1. What sources do you use to est. such philosophies on God?(min. of two)
2. Who is the "she spirit" you mentioned?
3. What religion do you consider yourself?

I know it's hard to understand me for I speack in ryhme and parable, so will ask for help explaining:-)

#1. Plato socrates machieveli, (every religion under the sun) micheal angelo, picaso, dali, music all kinds, music thoery and dischordant osscilation (superspectrum theory) paranormal and miraculous phenomena, sun tzu, tim leary, Carlos Castinada, (Bonanno Pisano and his Campo dei Miracoli, he was my great x 6or7 grandfather) aldous huxley(too many authors to note), b.f. skinner, Gen. Hatcher, Military strategies, Einstien, Nicoli Tesla, radio theory and electronics, advanced computer machine language, Fractal geometry, chaos and string theory, and on and on and on, like I say a life of accumulation that I recently discovered are in a way all connected, its an interesting thread:-)
(not braggin, I'm just a curious kinda guy)
#2 The only way the thread fits the mathmatics and the music and the image of GOD to humankind, was to assume the third part of the trinity had to be the feminine aspect of creation:-) (holy grail wasn't a cup it's womanhood:-)

#3.NOW THATS a darn good question, I think you got me stumped:-O

HEYYYYYY, maybe you could give it a name;-)

Sometimes what seems rational in our minds does not always reflect the way God wants us see things. I suspect, however, you and I worship different Gods.
