Or did this months issue of Rolling Stone just give christianity a BIG MIDDLE FINGER 

I'm not even going to comment on Kanye. That isn't what I'm trying to get at. What concerns me is the article inside about the "Religious Right".
Okay, I'll some it all up for you: "Political Christians are comming to take over the country. They want to replace the constitution with the bible! Oh No! And don't let these backwards ignorant hillbillies try to brainwash you with their homophobic, racist, fundementalist superstition about some one and only white son of god... and so you know what we're gonna do? We're gonna take some arrogant rapper and dress him up like you're savior! Look at your god now! Watch us piss on his image! And hey! Let's get muhammed in there too... yeah ! Look at you're sacred iconography exploited for shock and sensationalism... Nothing is sacred. Religion is a myth... buy our stuff! "
*btw I'm tripping...*

my personal take on it is: i'm not "christian", however i DO believe in jesus' life, mission, and death, but he was just an ordinary human like u and i, just enlightened, for he knew the "kingdom of god" is within your heart...
NOW KAYNE WEST on the other hand, is a hypocrite...ok yes he had struggles in his life yada yada but get over yourself, no need to pretend your jesus...
if i'm not mistaken, i saw him on tv 2 nites ago arguing backstage with his "peeps" about what kind of shoes he should wear...
how bout u keep the shoes off, get whipped for hours, then carry your own coffin thru streets and hills while getting spit at, cursed at, and made to feel like your nothing (ALL WHILE BAREFOOT MIND YOU!)

The epitome of the media and journalism is to find new nadirs in sordid behaviour.

Do you tend to rant a lot when you trip? I do.
Its because, especially on mushrooms over any other psychedelic, I see things as they truly are. And the neglected truth sends me into an infuriated rant.
And that's why I like to trip in nature!

That cover is just ridiculous. I'm all for the accurate portrayal of Jesus as a darker man, but Kanye West, that's just blasphemy.
