So all of the so called "Christians" who want to sit and make this song out to be something that it's not, PLEASE!!!! Maynard loves to stir things up, always has and always will. The beauty of music, is to be able to listen and take in your own meanings. It's time that Christians realize the true meaning of Christ--a pagen astrological metaphore, and a money making, control taking story by the roman government to supress it's people into slavery. ha | Reviewer: GrimmReefer | 12/10/08 Kind of funny people are arguing about religion when Maynard pretty much hates religion. Cant blame him all it does is start wars and kill Millions all in the name of "my imaginary friend is better than yours" You have the right to your opinion dont bash other people for theres Error | Reviewer: none | 12/11/08 Quote: "Any true Christian will live and let live and accept that other people have different views. Just remember, you're worshipping a Jew - Christianity isn't real. Jesus wasn't a Christian. " For the person who said Jesus isn't a Christian.. um... Christian = follower of Christ... Christ = Jesus Christ. Of course Christian didn't come till after paganism, lol. Jesus wasn't born yet. O_o If God wasn't real, we wouldn't be making such a big deal about it for so many years. has no one read the classics ? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/9/08 this song is simply about ... Orestes. Who seeks courage to kill his mother in revenge of the murder of his father Agamemnon by said mother Clytemnestra and lover upon his return of the trojan war. This horrible courage requires that he no longer consider the love a child has for a mother and to severe those ties (ombilical metaphore and all).... when did the God of christianty enter the ATrides cycle ? Wow. | Reviewer: sampson | 11/29/08 Why is everyone arguing about religion on here? This song has *nothing* to do with religion. It's about despising the fact that you bring your parents down with your failures and getting away from them to stop bringing others down in your downward spiral. your time is ending | Reviewer: Isaac | 11/17/08 This is to you, the reviewers of this song. With some of you I am well pleased; but with others I am dissapointed. I pity you people who think that God is a joke. You walk through life only seeking what you may devour. You without faith and an open mind will one day be judged upon your accomplishments of this world. You sit around and poke at christianity like it is a disease. You see other christians faults and misdeeds, so you exploit them and make a mockery of what you call a "religion". First of all, the term, "christian", means, "to be like christ". It is not a religion,it is a beleif; it is a one on one relationship with you and your creator. It's not about me or any other christian it's about you, it's always been about just you; so before you point the finger remember to cram it up your ass first. And as for the bible, it speaks pure truth. Not once has its history, nor its morals, been proven wrong. Woe to those without knowledge, for your burden will be heavy when the day of judgement comes. Circles and strife | Reviewer: JustSomeJerk | 11/16/08 First of all, to the athiests, your all correct. Christians should never be pushing their beliefs on anyone else. ITS NOT YOUR JOB TO CONVERT, ITS THE HOLY SPIRIT'S JOB, YOU ARE TO SIMPLY LIVE THE LIFESTYLE AND LET THE LORD WORK THROUGH YOU! HE WILL MAKE OTHERS JEALOUS OF YOU, AND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM! It's no wonder Christianity has a bad name; such a bad name, in fact, that I can't even consider myself a Christian anymore, only a follower of Jesus Christ. Secondly, There aren't nine circles of hell, and if you ever find scripture telling us what they are, and what happens there, then I'll gladly change my opinion and stick my own foot in my mouth. In luke 16: 22-23, it talks of the "Bosom of Abraham", where the Righteous dead wait for judgement day. Then, there's a place of Torment, called "hell" where the unsaved/unrighteous dwell for eternity. Then, heaven. the lake of fire was also a place IN hell for the wicked, it's in revelation. Also, Maynard is an intelligent guy, I'm sure that he wrote this song knowing that people would take from it what they want. The great thing about art, is that people will take from it, whatever they want. It's deconstructionism at its best. Maynard himself said in a Tool interview, that we should use Tool as our catalyst, because it is exactly what it's titled, a TOOL! I hope that one day, all of us come to realize that there are too many different paths of life to stay constrained to one narrow minded belief. before you choose a faith, you better search and experience a little more. ALL HUMANITY, is united under one common goal - to figure out this life, and the point of it. So, with that being said. Stop sitting dumbfoundedly in your own realm of consciousness, evolve and get educated. If your going to disagree with someone, and voice your opinion, you better be able to articulate your thought in a way that others can understand. The First Circle | Reviewer: Wilhelm | 10/25/08 According to the Christians, there are nine circles of hell, the first one being pretty much life now, just with many people from the past, sounds better than heaven, life requires strife, life without strife is pointless, burning in hell would be more interesting than heaven. Christians below that seek to convert the atheists among you, leave us alone. just my opinion | Reviewer: dee-the-bear | 9/24/08 the song is beyond beautiful...and in that beauty we find ourselves tumbling through tailz from our own livez..that is the wonderful power of music..it can mean what ever ...to who ever..each listener makez it their own..juzt sayin :} Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5
