I did not mess with it, I found it. ALong with a lot of other modified love songs that replaces one or two key words with the word GOD. I think I have stumbled along the key to how all of those religious bands make their music now.

They had that on South Park 2 weeks ago... Cartman formed a christian rock band and just copied a bunch of love songs, inserting God or Jesus.

Really? Perhaps this site had something to do with that. I will see if I can find it again and provide a link.

Well South Park is a show of political satire.

Oh really, I did not realize that. I thought is was a kids show. Hummmm, I guess all those adult jokes and humor should have tipped me off. Guess I will have to forbid the kiddies from watching it. Heaven knows we don't want our childrens mind to be poluted by such evil as this.

Ouch. Unfortunately, there's a lot of truth in that...

For the second part, that's the very reason why Christianity has taken such a beating in Western society. Their 'hows' have consistently been proven wrong, starting with Copernicus. They should drop them altogether and stick to the 'whys'. The Catholic Church, incidentally, tends to evade certain scientific questions with religious implications. For example, "Will sentient aliens have souls like we do ?" "Um, let's wait until we know if there are sentient aliens first." The anti-evolutionists, on the other hand, are just setting themselves up for a fall.

Once you go down this route, why choose religions at all? Personally I'd advise people to study history, philosophy and be well read generally, to travel and visit different cultures if possible, and sample as much of the fine arts as you can.
