Description
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 thought. 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...

I hope this was supposed to be a satirical comment. Saddam Hussein died on December 20th, 2006. Please read a newspaper and keep yourself informed before making silly comments on other people's artwork and embarrassing yourself.

I'm not saying I'm pro-Saddam, but let's just say that the oil over there must have been a major factor in the US' decision of invasion.

WOW. So simple, but so true.
Though the image is a bit confusing before you read a comment, because it seems like you blame it on church only, but I totally agree with you now when I've read the comment.

Too true! Beware the false prophets, for they will lead you astray from His word. I've seen it happen too many times. Kinda reminds me of a story when a religious man had to make a choice:
General: "I'm saying that I'm going to give you the chance to go over there and kill your oppressors who beat and humiliated you."
Religious man: ".... That would be against God's will."
General: "HA! Against whose God? More people kill in God's name than any other reason on this Godforsaken planet."
Religious man (smiling): "The only thing forsaken by God are those who kill in his name. My God is capable of nothing but love. My God even loves people like you."
I like the starkness of this picture. It really helps to send the message across.

You're right about the fear to have courage part, but I guess there are different types of courage? Anyway, this is a great piece! Did you get negative feedback?
