One of the strongest arguments I know of for their being some higher power is that we've never had to sit during a thirty-minute countdown to certain death. Somehow despite their apparent greed and cluelessness, all of the world leaders have managed to avoid pushing 'the big red button'. But, this song serves as a potent reminder that the universe could have been much, much worse - and could still be.
Here's to humanity outgrowing a lot of things - nuclear warheads and money being the first two I'd think we could live without.
Interesting. I like your commentary although I don't agree with all of it. I think their not wanting to push "the big red button' has little to do with God. (In fact, some of the craziest world leaders are non-believers). I think it has to do with basic human survival: nobody wishes to die out of fear and/or greed. I do agree with your statement on money. Although it currently helps many (poorer nations who need food for its people), it seems to do more harm than good overall. GREAT song. Love all the biblical references.
