And Then, Boom...

   As if life wasn’t confusing enough, we now have those ‘religion of peace’ fellows and those ‘turn the other cheek’ chaps hurling huge amounts of high explosives at each other. Again. Don’t say a lot for that religion thingy do it?  Loath thy neighbour ring any bells?
   I’m guessing the big guy up there is scratching his head, casting a jaundiced eye down here and thinking, ‘You know wot? No hopers. I’ll give that asteroid the size of Everest a flick in their direction and see if that concentrates any minds down there then I’ll move on to that other galaxy I’ve got on the back burner and try again.’ 
   I wonder when ‘we’ get to join in over there? Again...

Mac,
Spot on again buddy. I came to the conclusion a while ago that religion, regardless of its flavour, has bugger all to do with God. They all carry the same message - "Do as we tell you, or you will burn in hell". Religion is an abstract human concept which is incompatible with human nature. I particularly enjoyed your musical offering, not heard it before. Here's mine.

Ripper,
Thanks for that. Yes, it's a great number and gets to the point with no padding. Further to your three offerings, try this belting vversion;

Mac,
I've heard of Tom Waite but never bothered to listen. However there is something about that track that makes it an ear worm. Several playings last night followed by the tune going through my head when I woke up this morning. This one touches on the same subject:

Still on a musical note (see what I did there?), I've just heard about Eric Clapton and the co-co jab. Seems we have one more on our side. Don't miss his version of the Van Morrison track.

Ripper,
Sorry about the worm - but it's a great track.
I've seen the veterans video before - sad. And now, over here, they're being taken to court for doing what they were ordered to do. Is that nuts or what?
And, yes, that's a classic Van the Man track for sure.
