Is blasphemous Music ok?

@larsman Agreed!  Art is not an ideological manifesto.  It’s efficacy in what it sets out to do is not predicated on satisfying the totality of an individual or group’s ideological precepts. An artist is not a philosopher or a public leader.  An artist is just an artist.  One doesn’t like a particular piece? Fine. Leave it alone. Enjoy whatever it is you enjoy.  Simple.  We can discuss, debate, whatever, but silencing an artist because of their work, work that is irrespective of their real-life intentions as a citizen, is antithetical to the behavior of a free society 

@bdp24 100%.  It can’t get any more hypocritical than that, can it?

@bdp24 + 1 - Totally agree - Look what nonbelievers have to subsidize.... 

The Vatican rag is the first thing that comes to mind. Tom Lehrer has some fun songs.  National Brotherhood week and The Masochism Tango are a couple more.

@holmz, at least (believe or not) that's one I haven't heard from anyone in person, so I'll give you that rook move. ;)

The lasting thing that annoys me about organized religions is the claim made by nations that 'god is on our side' or similar...

Smaller groups will generally congregate and do various selfless deeds and services that tend to be of a good nature and intent.  When it gets co-opted by nation states as a rally cry that hypocrisy rears its' ugly side and lives lost in the most brutal of fashions....

But we do get carried away with so many of our predilections...  ;)

What a crowd. The review was obviously tongue-in-cheek, and you are turning it into a philosophical / political soap opera.
