The Conservative Son

Well, I suppose I've got to get my two cents in on this topic. Everybody else has.

Does anyone believe that Barack Hussein Obama, huh, huh, huh, didn't get a big ego kick out of the children being taught to sing his praises? Does anyone really think that it's o.k. to change the words to traditional Gospel songs like, "Jesus Loves the Little Children," and "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" to sing praises to any politician?

Does anyone believe that if similar songs to George Bush were sung during his presidency, that the "main stream media" wouldn't have had a cow? Does anyone believe that if similar songs to Ronald Reagan were sung during his presidency, that the "main stream media" wouldn't have gone apoplectic?

I've seen the old thirties film of children singing praises to Hitler in Nazi Germany. Does anyone believe that there really is a difference?

So, Kid Rock has a new album and song out called "Rock and Roll Jesus" Even more, I just saw an ESPN commercial using it in a sports promo.

Granted, I couldn't understand what Mr. Rock was saying. The lyrics are, as yet, unavailable on the net, apparently since the album is not yet available in the stores. I confess, I am not a big Kid Rock fan. So, I don't want to rush to judgement. Still, It would be a stretch to think that this "song" will be flattering to the Son of God.

I admit, I'm often too flippant and rarely, I'm sure, serious enough about my faith. Yet, too many use our Saviour's name in ways that they shamefully don't feel any shame for. Our society, in general, brags far too much about being far too irreverent. Although it may be sometimes cute or, perhaps, funny, we are lowering our standards and humour in ways that, in the long run, our nation is already beginning to regret.

Lastly, I can't help but wonder. If the song had been "Rock and Roll Muhammed," would they have still used it?
