Religion Has Done More Bad Than Good

[CrackerJax]

I had this crew once of Hondurans. We were working on an out of town project and I got two connecting rooms for them all, one with a kitchenette.
A week later I'm up there during the day out on the job and one guy pulls out some tin foil from his pocket and offers me some fish. His name was Jesus. I'm always polite so I say thanks and take a TINY piece. It was very good, and I asked him if he made it last night. Oh no, last week! Then I find out they just leave the cooked fish out! No refrigeration for their stomachs!

I didn't get sick, but that was the last fish I accepted from Jesus.

Even though I'm not a Jesus fan, I'm gonna watch this movie.

And as an aside, the guys that made this movie made another movie I'm planning on watching simply because it has the best title ever.

"During the Russian Revolution, much like the French Revolution, the churches and clergy sided with the Czars of Russia. This is because there was an established relationship between the Russian Orthodox Church and the Czars, much like there was a relationship between the Catholic Church and the French Crown prior to the French Revolution. Because of this, the church was opposing the revolution and working against the peasants and oppressed masses in their struggle to better their own condition.


Out of this grew a backlash against religious leaders during the revolution. However, once Stalin came to power and had stabilized the country he began to promote the growth of the Russian Orthodox Church, but he opposed all other forms of religion and only allowed existence of the Russian Orthodox Church to support Russian nationalism."

Sound familiar to those who spend their endless days trying to discredit religion? lol

Here's John Lennon's answer to your communist dreams:

You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right

You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're doing what we can
But when you want money
for people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
Ah

ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...

You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You better free you mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
all right, all right, all right
all right, all right, all right

like a portable kitchen? Thats pretty cool shit really. Wish the mexicans I used to work for would have brought a taco stand to work everyday prolly wouldnt have quit. Free tacos and easy work? Yeah anyone would stick around.

 

[CrackerJax]

Yah, it had everything.... and a connecting room. plus I got the room next door for them which connected to that kitchen suite. they didn't want to go home after three weeks!!!

They kept asking me after the job.... "when are we doing another project out of town?"

Sound familiar?Hell yeah!The catholic church tried to do the very same thing.We call it the "Dark Ages."

They where wanting to put some miles on that new kitchenette. After 500 miles they could turn the gas up all the way on the grill. whole city would have smelled like tuna burritos if you woulda let them.

Green Cross, I usually don't Agree with much of your hard lined views, but minus the analogy, the Lyrics really opened my eyes to a lot of what a host of others have always chimed in with, I think I finally get it,... Thanks for sharing the tunes, I'm feeling kinda Groovy now
