Artist's Comments

I hate when people (or bodies of people IE governments etc) do things in Gods (or Allah or whatever you want to call him/her/it/them) name! Most of us have sort of forgotten whats going on over there in Iraq. That doesn't mean its not happening anymore. We've just started to get used to the though. Whether we like it or not.


Anyway, back to the topic:
I get frustrated when people (or governments) say they follow god and then do something like.... Invade a country?? This piece is dedicated to using God as an excuse for evil.


Just sick of people going out and doing things in Gods name....

And now i'm very sleepy!

*goes to sleep*

DD! WOW! THANKYOU SO MUCH!

Go check these peeps out!

THANKYOU!

I will try and reply to all your comments and such but it might take a little while...

P.S. It seems that some people are wondering how religion comes into play here. One of my main points in this argument is the official US motto. 'In God We Trust'. ( See here: [link] )

I do not believe that you can say such a thing, such a bold statement, without at least IMPLYING that everything you do is of god.

Once you begin to portray your allegiance (If you will) In such a way, you can no longer really separate the two anymore (State and religion).

But thats my belief anyway...

Sometimes, the best art is the art that can slice through the complex facade of our civilisation and present us with a moment of clarity."

Be grateful we are not eternal. For where we eternal, not a single precious second would mean anything to us.

You can piss off a king. The worst he can do is kill you. Don’t piss off the pope. He can send you to hell. Nobody likes hell.
:iconthepeeves:
"God" is a convenient excuse. Like what Manson once said, "the God Band-aid"

He killed people. But he loves God, like us! He must be okay then!

Great image!

Yes. I totally agree with your words. I see those same thigs everywhere as well. I get tired of people treating God( or what have you) as a matter of convienance for their personal agendas. Well put.

Life is God's gift to you. What you do with your life is your gift to God.
