i say adtr in concert with the devil wears prada and silverstein and they are amazing!!! i love every song on their cd!!
but to me.. and i've talked about this to a couple of people.. this song isn't necesairly against religion.. its against the people in their religion.. more specifically the hypocrites in religion. i hate using the word religion so i'll go ahead and say its talkin about the fakers and hypocrites in christianity. do not get me wrong.. i am a very strong believer and i try to put God first in my life, but this song talks about the thing about my faith and about christianity that i can't stand more then anything.. and thats people who give christians bad names. i think that tyanidexduder nailed it. he doesn't say that there isn't a God.. he is saying the reason that he doesn't have religion is because of God's followers, and again not all His followers just the ones that give us a bad name. any christian who looks down on others, or says stupid stuff like if you watch harry potter then u don't believe in God, or tells anyone how to live their life, or puts themselves up on petistools like they are the most amazing thing in the world because they are a christian and that makes them better then others.. any christian with that type of attitude is exactly what he is singing against and i completely agree with him. CHRISTIANS GIVE CHRISTIANS BAD NAMES. again, i am a firm believer, i am a huge christian, but i am also sick of fakers and hypocrites scaring people off because other people see how they act and decide not to have anything to do with my faith. i do not judge anyone that is not a christian, i do wish that everyone was or would at least try it because it is amazing and there is no other satisfaction you can have then the satisfaction with Christ, but if you decide not to be a christian, hey man thats your decision and thats cool.. i am not going to judge you for it like a lot of other christians would. plus you cant bring people in when you shun them away for not believing in the first place. but anyways.. thats my thoughts on the song.. didn't mean to turn it into a sermon haha. God bless all.

Actually Sick, you're right, but at the sametime you're wrong. Though people do dance with words to make their....point more appealing, he is right in saying that the Christian faith isn't a religion. Religion comes from the latin word religioun which means to tie or bind back. This would be any belief system that says we must do "blank" to bind ourselves back to God or the higher being in that religion. Christian doctrine says man cannot bind themselves back to God and only Jesus can do that. Whether you believe Jesus was just a human or not is regardless,...

Whether you believe Jesus was just a human or not is regardless, the Christian faith believes He is God and so their faith is that only God can bind them back to God making it more of a relationship and not a religion by origin definition. Now, the word religion has indeed added meaning to kind of include Christianity, but origin is where the truth lies in a word. What it originally meant. Sorry, I love studying words and wanted to add in on this.
Mycke, I agree with you dude, Christians do give Christians a bad name.
