    Lyrical Concept/Meaning of Punish My Heaven?

    i have wondered about this song in particular since i first heard it in the 90s, and it has always given me this rebellious aftertaste, the message is what's between the lines, the rebellion that starts within, denying the self the bliss of the expected (the norm) and plunging into the darkness...

    Yet another religion thread: what constitutes weird?

    Faith, I think, is very much like love. It is the bringer of courage. Faith can be directed towards: God / Virgin Mary / Christ / Allah / Buddha / Brahma / God of the sun, wind and moon.... whatever, and fully KNOW and BELIEVE that no matter what the God you believe in will help you and take...

    Yet another religion thread: what constitutes weird?

    @ Siren: "the devil lurks in the details" Yes, God has many versions/sides/dimensions which proves precisely that He is but an Idea with many versions of it. God is a contradiction in himself (if you insist on looking at the details) and the proof to that are the 99 Names (or Qualities) given...

    Yet another religion thread: what constitutes weird?

    Is it also innate to kill one another just because we have different views on life, god, and the world? Sometimes it is ethnic cleansing. Sometimes it is a struggle for power; which religion dominates and rules over a certain country. Sometimes it is a division in the same religion, where...

    Yet another religion thread: what constitutes weird?

    I like the way you divided it into two schools of thought however I do agree with the first one simply because this is what really went down through history and is documented. The second idea has to be discredited simply because if it were true, then all humans regardless of race or location or...
