RE: Take a chance and see/ WBC

Hey Feeney! I listened to the song and I read the lyrics you posed a few days ago. I agree with what you and Brandon were saying about similarities between the lyrics/Krishna and the two religions.

The first verse reminded me of the chapter, the Cosmic Vision. Krishna explains how it is everything in the universe- good, bad, powerful, loving. And to allude to your previous post about the lines, "No fear in life, No guilt in death," I was also reminded of the earlier chapters when Krishna tells Arjuna not to fear death or dying. Because of the promise of an afterlife, there need not be fear
I am happy for you that you find comfort and strength in God. Thank you for posting.
And Avery, I can understand why you do not support WBC. It seems they are very extreme, insensitive, and rude. They seem to follow a different religion entirely. I've never heard of "spreading God's hate" to be a message others would want to follow or be inspired by...

Although Wikepedia is not the most credible source, I've learned a lot about this cult.
