Bastard of Christ Lyrics
Strike fear preaching of his coming here
Scriptures, twisted words to provocate
Rapture from the lord your god so great
For this his words berate truth - agonized, prophecized
Revive the book of fiction - blasphemy, gluttony, to deceive you and me
In battled disposition - hang the bitch on the cross
Entitle his convictions - blasphemous, lunatic
Your heart is full of hatred - BASTARDS DIE, FUCK YOUR CHRIST,
WILL SURVIVE, KILL YOURSELF........DIE!!!!!!!!!!
Do without, search the truth you'll never find
Scriptures offer little to relate
Laughter from the lord into your face
You fool, not true, no thank you - enemy of the cross
His word installs deception - pray to god, not for me, for yourself, soon
you'll see
You'll die for your religion - holy shit, pacifist
Untrue with choices given - nothing won, you are dead
Describe the holy vision - BLACKING OUT, FINAL BREATH, MEET WITH
DEATH, NOTHINGNESS, DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus got pwnd

You are crap quiffporn !! DEATH METAL RULEZ !! i'm not reffering to deicide because i don't think they are anything special. But one thing is certain, when a band writes simple and obvious lyrics there's always some gay who thinks he is the best to say that the lyrics suck, and the band sucks... If you don't like death metal then leave your lame opinions to yourself. Go to the avril lavigne lyrics page, it might be your homeland

Wow, who would listen to these pointless idiots for advice? "Bastard Of Christ", yeah that sure tells us how smart it would be to look at them for advice.

The word 'Deicide' comes from the word 'deity'. It means either the murder of a god or someone who murders a god. It is the same as 'Matricide' means to muder your mother, or 'Regicide' means to murder the reigning King or Queen.

Necrox, cheers for replying.
You could be right about members of Dimmu Borgir not believing in satan, as an entity, but I feel their lyrics tie in closer to that, then to the Anton LaVey notion, that we are all our own gods. I know that one member of the band, claims to worship the devil, but whether or not the rest of them do, I couldn't say.
After reading a bunch of interviews with Trey Azagthoth (sp) I don't think that he believes in the devil, although I couldn't actually tell you what he does believe (he is a very confusing man). Morbid Angel borrow their subject matter from biblical depictions of the devil and Lovecraft mythos, in equal measures.
With regard to your comments about Cannibal Corpse, I agree. I don't take them seriously, I just don't like them. I don't believe for a second that anyone has ever killed anyone because they heard a violent song or watched a violent movie. To quote Scream: "movies don't make serial killers, movies make serial killers more creative". None of my comments about Cannibal Corpse have been with regards to them having a negative influence, I view them in much the same way that you do, it is borderline slapstick gore. Having said that, I do feel that depending on the individual's constitution, this kind of stuff could become a negative driving force, if this is all that that person is listening to.
I agree totally with your comments about Glenn Benton, he is an idiot. The odd song could be forgiven, but when the guy puts out album after album of spuriously reasoned critisism of one of the major world religions, it starts to grate...

Why is everyone being so fucking immature and arguing that death metal is shit or death metal shits on everything. We all get it, some of you are die hard fans, the majority of you hate it. For fuck sake, you're all starting to sound like a bunch of Gaiafags and /b/tards. It's death metal. You either love it or hate it. End of story. Continue with your lives and stop arguing on here like it's YouTube!

Then the whole company of them arose, and brought him before Pilate. And they began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding us to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king." And Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" And he answered him, "You have said so." And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, "I find no...
Then the whole company of them arose, and brought him before Pilate.
And they began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding us to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king."
And Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" And he answered him, "You have said so."
And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, "I find no crime in this man."
But they were urgent, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee even to this place."
When Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
And when he learned that he belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him over to Herod, who was himself in Jerusalem at that time.
When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him, and he was hoping to see some sign done by him.
So he questioned him at some length; but he made no answer.
The chief priests and the scribes stood by, vehemently accusing him.
And Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him; then, arraying him in gorgeous apparel, he sent him back to Pilate.
And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before this they had been at enmity with each other.
Pilate then called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and after examining him before you, behold, I did not find this man guilty of any of your charges against him;
neither did Herod, for he sent him back to us. Behold, nothing deserving death has been done by him;
I will therefore chastise him and release him."
But they all cried out together, "Away with this man, and release to us Barab'bas" --
a man who had been thrown into prison for an insurrection started in the city, and for murder.
Pilate addressed them once more, desiring to release Jesus;
but they shouted out, "Crucify, crucify him!"
A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done? I have found in him no crime deserving death; I will therefore chastise him and release him."
But they were urgent, demanding with loud cries that he should be crucified. And their voices prevailed.
So Pilate gave sentence that their demand should be granted.
He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.
And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyre'ne, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus.
And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him.
But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
For behold, the days are coming when they will say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never gave suck!' Then they will begin to say to the mountains,
Fall on us'; and to the hills, `Cover us.'
For if they do this when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?"
Two others also, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him.
And when they came to the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on the right and one on the left.
And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." And they cast lots to divide his garments.
And the people stood by, watching; but the rulers scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ of God, his Chosen One!"
The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him vinegar,
and saying, "If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!"
There was also an inscription over him, "This is the King of the Jews."
One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, "Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!"
But the other rebuked him, saying, "Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?
And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong."
And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."
And he said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour,
while the sun's light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two.
Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!" And having said this he breathed his last.
Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, and said, "Certainly this man was innocent!"
And all the multitudes who assembled to see the sight, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts.
And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance and saw these things.
Now there was a man named Joseph from the Jewish town of Arimathe'a. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man,
who had not consented to their purpose and deed, and he was looking for the kingdom of God.
This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud, and laid him in a rock-hewn tomb, where no one had ever yet been laid.
It was the day of Preparation, and the sabbath was beginning.
The women who had come with him from Galilee followed, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid;
then they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

Well its a pretty good song but i don't see why christians are so mad? Their Vatican city somehow allowed the rape of underaged kids. Even in the US. The house of god allows rape of underage kids? Well fuck your god and your ideas. immorality
