Once Upon the Cross Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Necronic 

Cover art for Once Upon the Cross lyrics by Deicide

That was an odd comment regarding a "finger up his ass". I dont know about you, but having a finger up my ass doesnt inspire me to sing. Anyway, Deicide's message is clear. If you are offended, mission accomplished. Deicide and their fanbase are sick of busy-body christians imposing their beliefs, or attempting to impose their beliefs, on them. Benton is making the point of, "What father sacrifices his son?" Meanwhile, Christians turn this around as a token of love and sacrifice. Frankly, its digusting seeing these crosses with a dripping, bloody corpse in churches. How can children NOT be scarred from this? The message from Christianity couldnt get more azz backwards: worship a God who would sacrifice his son, and tell you 'fear me' while at the same time 'love me'.
