My namesake? The Archangel? HA. He would lead the armies of heaven against the darkness of the enemy. There are exactly three books of scripture that menition the archangel, Daniel, Jude and Revelation. They all have the Archangel contending against demonic forces in spiritual realm.
I am at a loss as to how this applies to Songs and Parodies. Or even my analogy.
First off, I am posting to you and not the AC right above you, because I admire your courage of not posting AC. That takes some guts. Props.
The origianl right holder isn't the current rights holder. Some transfer took place, and I'll bet that $$ was invovled, one way or another. Including if it was deeded away in an estate (royalties and all that).
As for Mr Guthry, I appaud him for being the visionary he was, supporting the same ideals found in modern copyright licensing (GPL, Creative Commons).
The issue I am making is at some point a mistake of ignorance was made and now idiots are in charge of an artist's work, doing something the artist did not envision or probably like. The artist gave up his rights at somepoint, either in an estate trust or in contract. The result is still the same.
I have a hard time believing you are a proud Democrat when you have Jimmy Carter giving lessons on economics and forign policy at your convention.
Not to mention that the STUPID DUMBASS was called "Tricky", "Sneaky" by one Al Gore. Who is the dumbass, the dumbass or the one that thinks the dumbass is smart?
So which John Kerry you going to vote for? The one that voted for the 94 billion, or the one who voted against it?
The one that said that Saddam had WMD or the one that said He didn't?
The one that is Prolife, or the one who is Prochoice?
We have a split personality running against a STUPID DUMBASS. Since I can't pick stupid over psycho I will vote third party.
Vote for a Libertarian. Vote for Green. Anyone but Skull and Bones.
That doesn't matter. Sold out means sold out. The value of selling at the time was measured, not the future.
If you sell me a house today, and the law changes tomorrow in a way that seriously benifits me for that house, you cannot complain that you were ripped off or otherwise complain that it wasn't a fair deal. You sold out to me, the deal is done.
But I can see that you are a whiney little coward, who thinks one should not be held accountable for ANY adverse reprocussions for one's bad decisions.
The world is NOT fair, never was, never will be. Quit trying to make it fair, because you only make it worse.
This is what happens when artists sell the rights to their work for a buck or two. Got a problem with the RIAA, MPAA etc, talk to the stupid artists who are having caviar dreams and champagne wishes.
As scripture says, you cannot serve two masters.
The point is, artists are in complete control UNTIL the moment they worry about $$ instead of art. Most artists are too stupid to understand this concept. It is easier to blame the "Big Corporations" for their own ignornace.
Apple has just announce the brand new iWatch, in various yummy colors. Newest version automatically adjusts clock to whatever time zone you are in. Prices start at $1499
Yes However, it is a M$ service, so your watch will become useless unless it is patched and has regular upgrades to keep from catching the newest virus, the NTP clock worm.
I haven't read that doctor. But having read a brief bio on the guy, I think he is as wrong as you are for suggesting I agree with him (you did, right?).
The moment you classify some humans as "More desirable" than others, you end up with Nazism and guys like Hitler. Actually anytime one can DEHUMANIZE another, we are all diminished.
Whether it be Nazis, Muslim terrorists or Planned Parenthood.

Since you were "ordained" by men, that is who you answer to, just like the pharasees.
As for who is and who isn't a chrsitian, I haven't a clue. Never claimed to. What I have said, which you either have missed, or otherwise ignorned, is that I CAN judge the fruit. In fact it is only a responsible believer's duties to judge the fruit.
The enemy has corrupted the church by allowing the rotten fruit to invade, and permiate it, with the whole judge not thing.

You are giving yourself too much credit with your half evolved monkey's line.;-)
Pro-Life, as in ALL human life is sacred, unborn and abortionist.
Mat 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done [it] unto me.
Who are the least except those that have no voice? I pity abortion doctors. They are sad, and in need of redemption. Redemption is impossible when they are dead.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
I guess you are assuming a Once Saved Always Saved Theology of modern churchianity. I don't make that assumption. I don't believe a one time profession of faith gets anyone anywhere, let alone into the Kingdom.
There is no "Raise your hand, goto heaven" verse in scripture, yet it is taught from the pulpits all the time.
No, on the other hand there is plenty of passages that speak to enduring till the end, obedience in faith etc, none of which is preached in mainstream churches.
Instead they preach prosperity doctrine of grace onlyism, with Pretrib Rapture theology thrown in. It is a simple case of one verse theology and bad prophecy interpretation.
If you are curious, I will point you to my website. But only if you ask.

God hates shrimp!
No, HE doesn't. He just called them what they are, bottom feeders, and told us not to eat them. Eat them if you want, but I won't.
And you are quite correct, Messiah would puke at the state of the church today. They have no idea what HIS teachings were.
They claim to want the Ten Commandments, but only believe in nine commandments and one legalistic suggestion, that if you do are denying the grace of GOD.
There are plenty of problems to go around. There are NONE without sin. None are perfect. Not even.... me.
But you see, the enemy has you focused on what is wrong, so much so that you cannot see what is right. By your own standards, you fail. But Grace allows for redemption beyond what you can fathom.
What damages to society do you think I advocate? I am pro life, anti death penalty. I am against murder, hate.
However I will stand for Truth, willing to die (not kill) for my faith. What do you believe in so strongly that you will die for it?
You know nothing about me or my faith. But you are partially right. I am not normal. I am not crazy except by the worlds standards, and if that is the basis of my judgement, I will be happy on that day. Let it be know that I am a peculiar person.
Gal 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Gal 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Gal 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Or how about this on Hate.
Mat 5:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Mat 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Mat 5:45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Mat 5:46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
Mat 5:47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so?
Mat 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
(See also Luke 6)
All of the groups you mention don't live according to the words of the Messiah, they hate. I can judge them for scripture tells me exactly what to look for. The problem is, that claiming faith doesn't make it so.
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither [can] a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Why do YOU feel qualified to judge them - do you remember what Jesus said about judging others' sins?
I don't judge sin, not my place. I judge the works and the fruit it bears. I know it is confusing to people like you who actually think those two are the same thing. But life is a little more complicated that the distillers of truth want it to be. They would much rather come up with catchy WWJD phrases, not actually doing what He did.
If they truly believed in a god, and in a jesus, then they would know that jesus was not racist. They would know that one of the first converts was an Ethiopian (black man).
I would be happy to show them the scriptural reference if they need it. They don't, which is why they are not christian, anymore than I am a black man because I have a great tan.
First off, I find it funny that you call me a chicken when you hide behind the "Anonymous Coward" title. Can you say hypocrite?
How about all the racist messages in the mainstream media and educational system? HMMM. Just because it isn't a swastica on a synagogue or a cross in a front lawn (Two pagan symbols btw). The left is just as racist as the right. They just couch thier racism in PC terms like "quotas", and with groups like the NAACP.
Tim McVie may or may not have been a christian. He was crazy. If you were a environmentalist, would you like me to compare you to the Unibomber?
None of the groups you menition in your long list are really "christian", anymore that PETA speaks for animal rights groups, or ELF and EF speak for environmentalist. Except that most environmentalists secretly applaud those groups, while most fundamentalist christians DENOUNCE the racist pigs you cite.
"Richard Butler, Bob Mathews, William Gale"... Never heard of them. Not really mainstream fundamentalist christians are they? Or do you really equate all christians fundamentalists as these ultra fringe crazys (assuming that they are).
So when people say Pat Robertson and the like are "fundamentalist christians" do you lump them into the crazies you list? Or do you correct them. The problem I see, is you equate WACKED OUT CRAZIES as fundamentalists, while not correcting those who call normal people "fundamentalists".
Perhaps what you need to do is really think about what fundamentalism means before you start makeing charges that Tim McVie and the like are "Fundamentalist Christaians".
I am a Fundamentalist, in the true sense of the word. I believe that there are fundamentals to my faith. Love your neighbor as yourself, Love the LORD your GOD with all your being, strength and mind.
This does not have any exceptions for race, color, creed, religious affiliation, denomination, left wing, right wing, chicken wing (attempt at humor).
You can pray for me all you want. But unless you believe in a supreme being (as a fundamentalist, perhaps?) it does no good.
Secular State is a bad idea, because then you have no core value system. With everyone having different views on things, which view point is common?
Why is ONE groups views favorable over another? And, who gets to decide?
Personally I don't think the government should be educating our children, because I don't agree with much of what is being taught (especially as fact when it is NOT).
The problem is, whose values do you want taught. Mine, yours, taliban, Peta, Nazi, Communist, Secular Humanists? Do we just go to the lowest common values, and which ones would those be?
The governments of the world are the greatest sources of evil. All men are created equal. Life, Liberty etc, remember? Not Health Care, Education, or Welfare (which are goods and services, not rights) Rights exist apart from money, goods and services.
