Review about Judith Faith vs Anger | Reviewer: Melody | 7/3/09 I will start by saying that I'm a Christian, and that I love this song. I understand what it means, and I understand where the singer is coming from. He sees his mom laying there, apparently stricken with disease that God inflicted on her, and still she believes in Him. Of course, he's angry about it, but that's because he doesn't understand what it means to be a Christian. To be a Christian means to be tested constantly about your faith. I agree that no one should just have "blind faith" in God; they should have an effective faith. Every Christian needs to question and explore their faith to get answers about it. That's how you become knowledgeable about God, and that's how you grow as a Christian. Whenever someone makes the change to follow God, they need to expect to be put through a lot of crap in their life. Why? Because He's testing us to see if we are sincere or not. If you think God is cruel for doing this, well, I'd say reevaluate how you judge and test your fellow man. It only makes sense that He do so; I mean, look at how trusting Adam and Eve turned out. The key is to always believe that God is God, and that He will always do what He promises to do. Asking questions is a-ok! Another thing: CHRISTIANS GET ANGRY AT GOD, TOO! We do doubt Him from time to time because He's doing things His way and not ours, and we can't understand why! Then, we pray that He'll do things our why and get angry when he doesn't. That's not having effective faith; that's being childish. "Your will, not mine, be done on Earth as it is in Heaven." Personally, I think if someone makes the feeble change to have "blind faith" that this song portrays, getting all angry that God's putting them through a hard time, and turns from Him, then that person has a very weak faith. They probably weren't serious about it in the first place or just expected life to be a cakewalk from the time they started leaning towards God. Wrong! The life of a Christian is probably harder than the life of a non-believer, but I can't really say for sure because, like everything else, the lives of people vary. My dad and I once had a huge blowout about God. It wasn't pretty, and it hurt me deeply to hear from him, my father, that "God is just a state of mind." I didn't get angry at him, though; I didn't curse him. Instead, I feared for him, and, keeping my comments to myself, I prayed. I prayed that God would do something to show that He is not just a "state of mind," no matter how drastic. A few months later, while Dad was getting a physical, the doctors found a 6-9 month tumor in his lung. Just like that, my dad had lung cancer. Many things happened at once: Mom and Dad cried, I grew even more fearful but kept praying even though I didn't know what God was doing, Dad turned cold turkey on cigarettes (hasn't touched them since), and he turned TO God, not away from Him. Last September, Dad pulled through a surgery he had a 45% chance of dying from with a doctor who God directed us towards and who possesses a strong faith in Him himself. (Whoa! A man of science! Believing in God!? Woooooow...what a concept!) Also, the test samples came back that the tumor was benign, the surrounding lymph nodes being benign, also. God uses science, a set of man-made discoveries, to perform miracles, and this experience is MY personal proof that God exists (you know, if there wasn't the whole Holy Spirit experience which is undeniable proof that He exists. People just don't break down in tears and lose the strength to stand in the middle of church or the grocery store from feeling His presence. If you haven't experienced what I'm talking about, I hope you will someday.). I also understand the parallels between Christianity and some earlier religions. The story of Noah's Ark and the flood is really similar towards a story in the Gilgamesh Epic, but think about this for a second: Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are the top religions in the world. Each one of them is based on the same God, and He doesn't, hasn't, and won't ever change. Each of these religions, despite everything they've been through in history, despite how often they have been misinterpreted and warped by everyone, even their own people, haven't been terminated or wiped out like so many others. Coincidence? No. A big thank you to A Perfect Circle for this song and to everyone who has reviewed here. I have read many of your comments, both for and against God and have taken them into consideration to produce this argument for Him. My faith has been tested and questioned by this, and I have come out of it stronger and more convinced in my faith than ever before. I pray that blessings will rain over each of you today and many days to come. Quit throwing fits. | Reviewer: David | 6/29/09 The whole point of this song is to point out that you can believe in god, but you can't tell people that everything that happens in the world is because god says it should happen. People blame injuries and tragedies on gods will. There is no supreme being that will willingly hurt, break or paralyze his followers, and no devil that would do it either. The song is claiming that saying things like "god wanted this to happen" is bullshit. If a tragedy befalls you, it is neither god's or the devil's (supposing the exist)and niether of them are going to help you get over it. Shit happens weather you cause it or by pure chance, and you can't blame god, and you can pray as much as you like, but its not gonna make it any better. In life, you tough it out and survive, or hold on to blind faith and then loose hope when you realize that just praying isn't going to help your sorry ass. wow | Reviewer: vvee | 6/22/09 I liked this song when I heard it, without fully realizing the lyrics and reasoning behind them. I am and will always be a Christian, believe in the Bible, everything It stands for and what God stands for, what Jesus did. There are many who are angry for these beliefs and don't understand why someone could hold on to it..call it a fairy tale. For those who are dealing with this unbelief, I'm sorry for any circumstances or situations, loved ones lost, that you may have dealt with. Yes, everything happens for a reason, whether we want to recognize it or not. I've dealt with rape, divorce, nearly losing my own children, abuse, losing those I love....yet I still believe, even questioning and doubting. But I will tell you now, without the HOPE I have in Jesus Christ I would not be here today. I've see His blessings, felt His Presence...I see miracles everyday because of Him. My children are miracles. This song is actually an awesome song, how well composed, written, the emotion evident in it. Everyone can relate to it regardless of the point it may or may not be trying to get to those who hear it. God bless everyone. I pray God will reveal Himself to you in a real and awesome way that will help you deal with unbelief and anger. He loves all His children whether we want Him or not. judith | Reviewer: The Fan | 6/3/09 Judith is about how when Maynard was 14.His mom Judith Marie had a stroke and was paralyzed from the neck down, and also praised God so he made Judith and was mad at his mom for worshiping God after she was paralyzed,so he says in the song "Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed" and got mad at god for what he did to Judith Marie. Get a Life | Reviewer: APC4L | 6/3/09 This isn't an antichrist song all you God fearing Christians. It's about a man who is dealing with the fact that his mother was sick and dying and all the emotions a man faces when trying to grieve. Have you ever thought to yourself Why God did this happen? And for the person who said that listening to APC or Tool is worshiping the devil you need to get outside more. Time to abandon fairy tales | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/1/09 This song examines only one aspect of the "God" situation. It reflects anger that a supposed God might inflict or allow torment to his loyal followers. It is time for believers to understand that there is no more evidence for God than for any imaginary friend. It is time to examine the roots of Christianity, and discover that objective evidence exists that Christianity was founded upon much older man-made myths. Humans created God... God did not create humans. Christians... what objective evidence can you provide that God exists? The answer is none. Preachy people | Reviewer: Layla | 6/1/09 This song's lyrics are saying things that made me cringe at first. I was raised Catholic and everything, but even I went through times where I felt like this. I think everyone feels like this at times. It's a damn good song. People who get all preachy about it are in denial. You WILL go through this phase when you lose a parent, when you lose a friend, or when you, yourself, are dying. I understand him completely. anti-christ song | Reviewer: jasper | 6/2/09 Sorry guys but this song sucks its an antichrist song jesus never leaves us he is always there seek and you shall find always pray and have faith in him. Its all about faith its hard to understand but I hope this will be an eye opener to you. Please read the bible and believe in him repent your sins , its never too late. Godbless u all save it for someone who cares | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/1/09 it's a song people get over yourselves. of course if I believed in the bible i'd be worried too. it's only a matter of time before science proves that the whole thing was made up by a bunch of guys that wanted people to conform to a set value belief. i think people believe this crap because it makes them feel better.jesus is gonna take away all my sins! yeah right i'm a little too old for fairy tales... I get it | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/18/09 I relate heavily to this song...my mother is a devout christian who has prayed all her life and put others before herself...she was recently diagnosed with breast cancer...at the time I already questioned my faith...and "god's" exsitence...and to see her gain this new life threatening burden and still pray to and believe in this "holy entity" has helped me establish a disbelief in the faith and ponder how she could be so devouted to a god that punishes his followers....and I didn't read the christian reviews that apparently think this song bashes your beliefs....it doesn't...it just questions them Review By Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next 10 Pages Review the song Judith The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
