Wow chchchchchchchchchchchchchchchchchchchchchandon. Take a breath. Too many commas. Not enough periods. There are several problems with your response. First and foremost, the fact that you are not going to try to convert me indicates you don't understand your own religion. You are commanded to try to convert me. Get it? Christianity is a proselytizing religion--just like islam. And please don't feed me the "we need to interpret all religious texts to arrive at truth" bullshit. Please. Christians don't use the koran or the writings of siddhartha to guide their religious principles. And they shouldnt. I admire that you fight for your convictions, but why would you resort to ad hominem attacks? You seem too smart for that (my life is pointless? Lol.). And by the way, just because you see room for error in biblical writings doesn't mean that most christians and/or jews agree. In fact, most see the written word of the old and new testaments as infallible truth. Which means that women are valued by god less than cattle (in deutoronemy, when god is giving law and punishments for crimes, he commands that if a man steals a man's cow, he is to be put to death. But if he kills a man's wife, he is to only receive a fine. Yeah. What a great god to worship--if you're a man). And I am accurate about most christian bands who have crossover success. Their lyrics inevitably become ambiguous. Oh sure, they might throw a bone to their roots by having one or two songs with unambiguous references to god or ol' jesus. But the other songs are written so that people don't immediately think of religion when they hear them. You write like a guy, but you "feel" like a girl. If you are a girl, your tenacious responses are cute. I would like to take you out sometime--we could have a nice talk. If you are a guy, quit "feeling" so goddamned much (again, I am being facetious with that remark).

Blah blah. I didn't say that my interpretation was that she wanted to have s* with god. I said that if it is about god, then she wanted to have s* with him. Obviously I am being a tad bit facetious. But if its about god, then why be so goddamned ambiguous about it? I am so sick of these "christian" bands claiming to be christian and to love god, and "we do it in the name of jesus h. christ" (the h stands for "heretic". Even jesus didn't believe he was the son of god), but they pick their spots don't they? In some interviews, they barely mention caspar the angry ghost, and in others, they can't shut up about him. These bands typically start out with more direct lyrics, clinging to the "christian rock" genre--after all, we all know that even the most successful "christian" bands are usually not very talented when compared to their pop/rock/country counterparts. Its easier to be a success. Less competition, weak competition, and a somewhat captive audience. So they start out as christian, cross-over to popular culture a bit, and then start to slowly shed the "god lyrics" (or at least make their lyrics so ambiguous that any claim that they are spreading "his word" become ridiculous). So. I will rephrase my opinion. The song is about making love to someone she doesn't see very often (maybe someone else in a band who is on the road. Or a soldier. Or a traveling salesman. Or santa claus (she only sees him on christmas eve, and their "secret place" is behind the christmas tree). If it is about god, then she either wants to have s* with him, or she (they) are another disgusting band that sells out their principles for a few bucks. Which makes her (and them) music business whores who allow themselves to be bent over the trough of jesus. When jesus commanded his followers to proselytize, I don't think he meant for them to be ambiguous about it. (don't you just hate proselytizing religions like christianity and islam? They are commanded to get converts--i am more tolerant of the nonproselytizing religions like judaism. Jews don't care if you convert or not. In fact, they would prefer you not convert). Chchchchchchchchchandon? Please. Don't try to explain evolution again. I think you might hurt yourself. Kardain? The old testament is the jewish bible. It is not the christian bible. Just because it is conveniently attached to the new testament in most printings doesn't mean it is a christian bible. Christians need to stick with the brand-spanking new, still-got-the-pricetag-on-it-ala minnie pearl testament. Muslims have the koran, jews have the old testament (along with the talmud--especially for orthodox jews) and christians have the new testament. But that's the typical religio-centric religion for you. Its all about them. God chose them (guffaw).

Although I respect christians' opinions on this song, it is not about god. In the words of chris rock, "you must be outcho cotton pickin' mind" if this song is about god, then the writer of this song has a romantic love for the big dude. "i feel you on my fingertips" and "my tongue dancing behind my lips for you" and "the fire rising through my being" and "and i begin to fade into our secret place". These words are about a lover. Tongues don't dance behind lips for someone unless you look at them for a little of the old hunka chunka. So if its about god, then this chick wants to "do" the big fella. Which is ok I guess. Judging by his anger problem in the bible, the dude could stand to get a little poontang every now and then.
