Voice of god is government

And the world might cease
If we fail to tame the beast
From the faith that you release

Neighbors, no one loves you like he loves you, / And no one cares like he cares. / Neighbors, let us join today in the holy love of God and money, / Because neighbors, no one loves you like He loves you. / And what better way to show your love than to dig deep into your pockets. / Dig real deep, until it hurts. Alleviate your guilt, / Free yourself once again, because he gave to you, brothers and sisters. / Please give a ten, twenty five, or fifty dollar tax-deductible donation, / And I assure you your modest pledge will be used to censor TV and radio, / Ban questionable books, and contribute to many other Godly services. / No longer will young Christian Americans hedonistically indulge / In masochistic submission to rhythmic music, for with your monetary support, / There is no end to what we can achieve in this country. / The voice of God is government. / The voice of God is government. / The voice of God is government. / In God we trust, sinners repent! / Can't you see what we believe in, all our thoughts, all our reasons, / Pursuit of life and liberty and happiness we cannot see? / Speak of truth with a mighty voice, but politics are your real choice. / Hire men to change the law, protect and serve with one small flaw. / Voice of God is government. The voice of God is government. / Voice of God is government. In God we trust, sinners repent! / If we shun God and Jesus Christ, religious love is sacrifice. / Love for God is shown in cash, the love they send is mailbox trash. / With every pamphlet we receive, more money asked for Godly needs. / Build a million dollar church, with money spent on God's research. / Voice of God is government. The voice of God is government. / Voice of God is government. In God we trust, sinners repent! / On late night TV, God can heal, a certain force you cannot feel. / Love for money in God's name, religion's now a TV game! / Build a million dollar church, with money spent on God's research. / Build a million dollar church, with money spent on God's research. / Voice of God is government. The voice of God is government. / Voice of God is government. In God we trust, sinners repent! / Voice of God is government. The voice of God is government. / Voice of God is government. In God we trust, sinners repent!

Socialism and religion

Present-day society is wholly based on the exploitation of the vast masses of the working class by a tiny minority of the population, the class of the landowners and that of the capitalists. It is a slave society, since the “free” workers, who all their life work for the capitalists, are “entitled” only to such means of subsistence as are essential for the maintenance of slaves who produce profit, for the safeguarding and perpetuation of capitalist slavery. Religion is one of the forms of spiritual oppression which everywhere weighs down heavily upon the masses of the people, over burdened by their perpetual work for others, by want and isolation. Impotence of the exploited classes in their struggle against the exploiters just as inevitably gives rise to the belief in a better life after death as impotence of the savage in his battle with nature gives rise to belief in gods, devils, miracles, and the like. Those who toil and live in want all their lives are taught by religion to be sub...

Why am I not christian

As falsas previsões proféticas apenas têm o poder sobre aqueles que foram condicionados a crer sem base na evidência e sobre aqueles segundo o nível de instrução é espantosamente carente de teoria materialista. É como se um rei arcaico falasse e suas palavras mostrassem como verdadeiras, seja como ordens, bênçãos ou maldições que poderiam fazer acontecer, magicamente, o que elas tendem a demonstrar. Acredita-se por medo a constatação imperativa da profecia paterna que remete ao obscurantismo e ao domínio subjetivo e ao triunfo geográfico ou a "experiência divina" revela o conformismo absoluto que está implícito. Em ambos os casos, a fragilidade dos crentes que concordam sem resistência extrai a crueldade do representante (muitas vezes um semi-letrado) em extrair satisfação, vaidade e dinheiro da ilusão, ou seja, de enriquecer e ganhar poder por meio da mentira.

A religião libera o homem da difícil tarefa do pensamento, ao oferecer explicações fáceis e cômodas para todos os fatos e ao desobrigá-lo de submetê-lo ao controle da experiencia e da interpretação histórica. O mesmo acontece com o ocultismo que promete uma verdade instantânea sem exigir esforço da razão.
