Nine Inch Nails – Heresy Lyrics 18 years ago
Next to The Fragile album, this has got to be one of my favorite songs. It is powerfully prophetic! Regardless of Reznor's views on Christianity, his lyrics not only present an historical look at this religion, but flagrant hypocrasy occurring today with the mix of religion and politics. As a Christian, I am saddened, but not surprised, at what people have done with and to Jesus' teachings. Jesus taught to "love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" (one of the MANY things he taught); and many Christian churches in America are doing demonstrating everything BUT this. Certainly, what does this say to another who is hurting and looking for answers. If this is what we, as the church, portrays, I can see how another would be turned off.
