Holy Shit! It's funny sad. He reads a passage in a clever Time Magazine article linking Joni's views on Art to a line in one of her songs, but he is so ignorant about culture and human history that he totally misunderstands the reference to Art (human expression through representation), instead believing it's a "male muse" named "Art." Crazy! The thing that goodfight.org creator, Pastor Joe, and so many other religious zealots have in common is a deep and driving ignorance. They know a little bit about a few things, they have active minds and they think they can reason. What he has -- along with all those other ignoramuses all over the world, including the one in the White House -- is the capacity to bullshit. Scarier thought: is Pastor Joe a wolf in sheep's clothing, spewing bullshit when he knows better?

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth. "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. "Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. "Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. "You have heard that it was said, `AN EYE FOR AN EYE, AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH.' "But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. "If anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat also. "Whoever forces you to go one mile, go with him two. "Give to him who asks of you, and do not turn away from him who wants to borrow from you. "You have heard that it was said, `YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR and hate your enemy.' "But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. Now which single part of this equates to OUr current Adminstration, I think the Jury is out on God where is the proof, A College did a study on Praying through the last 6 years and they found that 78% of all praying does not achieve there goals. and look at Cambodia and the Holocaust and the Global Economy yes the Global Economy, ask yourself who benifits from this, do we, no!!! its the Rich and the Richer that benifit from the Global Economy, and yet its portrayed to us as our salvation for the future, By this current Administration who porports to get its divine inspiration from GOD Im sorry but if GOD supports the Global Economy then there is something wrong somewhere.Going back to the thread title I wish GOD's supporters would come forth and condem everything Republican and to a certain extent Tony Blair hated by his own party, but they dont do they this leaves my impression of GOD very confused, and to think you would stop listening to Joni because of this. If you ask me Joni has given people throughout the world, solace, enjoyment, pleasure, hope, and inspiration in her song writing, surely a Christian gift to us all. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2006 10:07:19 +1000 From: Melissa Gibbs Subject: Cover of Woodstock Hi there Melissa from Sydney here, de-lurking to post about a new cover of Woodstock on an Australian album titled "Rockwiz duets". Apologies for the long post, but I'm a fan of Rockwiz and some of you may be interested in the background. Rockwiz is an edgy TV show broadcast on SBS - Australia's multicultural and multilingual public broadcaster. From some pomotional material: "Rockwiz is the illustrious music quiz show recorded live in Melbourne's Gershwin Room at The Esplanade Hotel. RocKwiz explores the weird and wonderful world of rock and roll and is hosted by Julia Zemiro, adjudicated by Brian Nankervis, and has scores held aloft by Dugald the handsome roadie. Two contestants on each team are audience members who have proved their rock brain credentials in a pre-show quiz. Two singers, emerging from behind plush velvet curtains, perform a song each and join the fun when they are correctly identified from a set of cryptic clues. The game proceeds with four rounds of questions and answers and climaxes with the two singers performing a duet, backed by the superbly talented RocKwiz Orkestra." Anyway, a new CD has been released titled 'Two For The Show' and features a selection of the best 19 of the duets. Included among these is a terrific version of Woodstock by James Reyne and Mia Dyson. James is the former front man of a band called "Australian Crawl" - very popular with Australian teens in the late 70s/80s. James Reyne has gained a bit of credibility recently. Mia Dyson is an up and coming artist categorised in the folk/blues category - she lists Lucinda Williams as a huge influence - definitely someone to watch. This Woodstock recording is more like the CSNY version. The album also contains a terrific cover of Roxy Music's "Slave to Love" by Martha Wainwright and someone else whose name escapes me now. All the best Melissa in Sydney ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2006 17:50:53 -0700 (PDT) From: Bob Muller Subject: Re: Cover of Woodstock Hi Melissa - thanks for delurking and yes this one hit my radar screen about 2 weeks ago - I bought a copy this week from an ebay seller in Melbourne who was offering it at a good price (much lower than cduniverse.com's reasonable import price). I'm anxious to hear the cover as well as everything else on the disc. (Maybe you know that I'm cuckoo for covers?) Bob NP: Beth Orton, "Galaxy Of Emptiness" Tired of spam? Yahoo!
