Cee Lo Green Changes 'Imagine' Lyrics To 'All Religions' From John Lennon's 'No Religion' During New - Polidicks

"all religions" still gives the song a general feeling of peace so what-the-fuck-ever

[QUOTE=yawmwen;34022740] That definition separates it from atheism. Again, atheists make the assumption that there is no god. Agnostics don't take any stance because it is unknowable.[/QUOTE] No, you're an idiot. Agnosticism is not a middle-ground. Atheism is not antitheism. Stop confusing them.

[QUOTE=Sanius;34022781]No, you're an idiot. Agnosticism is not a middle-ground. Atheism is not antitheism. Stop confusing them.[/QUOTE] No, you're an idiot.

I believe there may be a god or multiple gods, though I am not attached to any specific one. They cannot be proven or disproven through scientific or religious research and if they do exist they seem to have no attachment to the fate of mankind and therefore do not directly affect me.

[QUOTE=yawmwen;34022740]"Agnosticism is the view that the truth value of certain claims—[b]especially claims about the existence or non-existence of any deity,[/b] but also other religious and metaphysical claims—is unknown or unknowable" That definition separates it from atheism. Again, atheists make the assumption that there is no god. Agnostics don't take any stance because it is unknowable.[/QUOTE] Okay, fair enough. I wouldn't say that's "not taking a stance", though. They've at least acknowledged that there is a question about belief, and that they don't have an answer.

[QUOTE=yawmwen;34022786]No, you're an idiot.[/QUOTE] I'm not the one butchering accepted definitions. The ones you follow are recent abominations of the real definitions.

lol, if all religion's true, then wouldn't everyone bicker about which religion is "truer." Way just flush the message of that song down the toilet

all religion is true though, at least in the minds of every believer [editline]3rd January 2012[/editline] so basically cee lo was describing exactly what we have today

Like John Lennon. Like Cee Lo Green. No problemo.

Getting rid of religion wouldn't stop people from killing each other anyway, it's not like people wouldn't just find another excuse to be assholes.

[QUOTE=kaine123;34023039]Getting rid of religion wouldn't stop people from killing each other anyway, it's not like people wouldn't just find another excuse to be assholes.[/QUOTE] but you do acknowledge that religion is one excuse to be an asshole, right

They've at least acknowledged that there is a question about belief, and that they don't have an answer. [/QUOTE] Taking the stance that you don't know isn't a very "strong" stance. It's more passive then the active denial or acceptance of god that theists and atheists tend to take.

[QUOTE=yawmwen;34023095]Taking the stance that you don't know isn't a very "strong" stance.

wow seriously he changed one fucking line big deal, I bet Lennon's rolling in his grave in anger right now (here's a hint: he isn't)

[QUOTE=Taggart;34023486]wow seriously he changed one fucking line big deal, I bet Lennon's rolling in his grave in anger right now (here's a hint: he isn't)[/QUOTE] (because he's dead)

You know what Cee Lo Green? FUCK YOU!

Agnostic in a nutshell: [video=youtube;GVrfqLVI7ZI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVrfqLVI7ZI[/video]

[QUOTE=Sanius;34023900](because he's dead)[/QUOTE] I would hardly believe you could roll in your grave [i]without[/i] being dead.

Can see why he did it, all the power to him I guess, seeing the US is fairly religously diverse country.

[QUOTE=Shazmind;34025613]Can see why he did it, all the power to him I guess, seeing the US is fairly religously diverse country.[/QUOTE] It's not [I]that[/I] diverse (if I remember correctly something like 80% of the population is Christian) but it's probably still one of the most religiously diverse countries [quote=Wikipedia]According to a 2007 survey, 78.4% of adults identified themselves as Christian[/quote] [quote=Wikipedia]The leading non-Christian faiths were Judaism (1.7%), Buddhism (0.7%), Islam (0.6%), Hinduism (0.4%), and Unitarian Universalism (0.3%). The survey also reported that 16.1% of Americans described themselves as agnostic, atheist, or simply having no religion[/quote] So while most other religions take up less than 1% that's still tens of thousands of people in a country as large as the U.S (about 313,000,000 people as of 2011)

[QUOTE=Jasun;34003066]Stupid of him to change it, stupid of people to get mad about it.[/QUOTE] Yoko is going to tear him a new one.

But since nobody did, I'll assume the internet will stir that shit up.

[QUOTE=Rammaster;34022924]lol, if all religion's true, then wouldn't everyone bicker about which religion is "truer." Way just flush the message of that song down the toilet[/QUOTE] if all religions were true we'd probably be more worried about not living every waking moment of our lives in crushing despair as amoral death gods slowly destroy the collective soul of humanity for their own amusement.

[QUOTE=AceOfDivine;34010444]I wouldn't be surprised if god did, he enjoys death and murder after all.[/QUOTE] Blood for the blood god!

What a bitch
