Human of the Year

hmmm interesting reading the different opinions on this song.. I agree with some people who said that this song involves sarcasm and irony..but not about religion itself. When I first heard her mention the name "Karl Projektorinski", Karl Marx automatically sprung to mind. I think this song is about him or rather his teachings and his followers the so-called marxists & neo-marxists (hence "Projektorinski"). Marx's view of humanity basically is that everyone deserves equal chances. But at the same time Marxism rejects any religious beliefs. Moreover, Regina Spektor is of jewish belief who was born in communist Russia, and at the time communist Russia suppressed religion and support atheism. So I think what she is basically saying is that it is hypocritical that people say they are pro humanity and that everyone should be treated equally, yet they are not allowed to practice religion or that people who have religious beliefs are ridiculed for believing in the "illusive" God.
