For some reason this thread put me in mind of Hank Hill’s line at the Christian rock concert:
“Don’t you see that you’re not making Christianity better, you’re making rock and roll worse!”
Big Bad Voodoo Lou and Uvula Donor that has really put a smile on my face today. I haven’t thought about Joe’s garage in a long, long time.
First heard it on a road trip with my rock band from Orlando to Cincinnati.
Come to think of it, our guitar player did have a strat with a whammy bar.
Back then they used to call me Mary

I like the lyrics by that Israeli guy of the Knights In Satan’s Service:
Pardon my ignorance but who’s Russ Ballard?
Last time I saw it, I recall wondering if it was blasphemous to think Judas was hawt. Then I remembered I’m not a Christian, and I felt better about all of it.
I approve of the tactics, just not the motivations.
Guitarist, keyboardist, singer (Argent, “Hold Your Head Up”), songwriter (Three Dog Night, “Liar”), producer (many artists).
Back in his college days, my dad used to drink something called a Purple Jesus.
Ever try one?
Mix equal parts grape juice (or Grape Kool Aid), 7-Up, Vodka, and Everclear.
Serve over ice. (In a glass! )
Drink. But very carefully…
This man came up to me just the other day
He asked me if I’d been born again
I told him I didn’t think I had
That I had been rejected
But I think Hell’s got all the good bands anyway…
Ode to C.C. Part Two - The Flaming Lips
That about sums it up for me.
Oooh, tradesies!
I’ll give you the two plastic Jesi from my dashboard and my velvet painting of Jesus with Elvis - PLUS, as a bonus, the big brass Jesus from my foyer, for your fibre-optic Jesus playing baseball with some kids and a lamb, with the flashing red LED lights in the eyes and gold sequins on His robe that plays Ava Maria when you wind it up.
I’ve been praying for one of those hourly. Hourly.
I swear there ain’t no Heaven and I pray there ain’t no Hell.
I’m not gonna tell by living, only my dying will tell, said only my dying will tell, yeah…
Only my dying will tell.
Thanks, fishbicycle! Oh, anybody ever been to Jesus of the Week ?????е??????????
Dammit! I hit “preview!” I’ll try again: Jesus of the Week

The writer of the song you quoted.
Dude, no way would Jesus play a strat. He’d be rocking out the commandments on a Les Paul so hard that the wood would smoke but it’d be a miracle guitar that burns while Jesus shreds at lightning speed but is never consumed in its flames and Van Halen will be all like, “Whoa!” and the earth opens beneath Scott Stapp who gets bent over and savaged by the ghost of Jim Morrison (fat, bearded Morrison, not young and svelte) and then all his amps would explode and the Rapture begins only the Chinese won’t get to go because they don’t have Rock 'n Roll they have Pat Boone and Yatta.
“I don’t care if it rains or freezes as long as I got…”
Pete Townshend is Jesus?
Well, I must say that I disagree with the OP 100%. But this is not the place for that kind of talk. So, in the spirit of the rest of this thread I’d just like to admit that…
Jesus was way cool.
Love the sin, hate the sinner, isn’t that it?
I believe this is now my favourite sentence ever.
He’s still have the big Marshall stack though, right? And I think we can agree that in Heaven’s band, he’s backed up by Moses playing a mix of Tama and Pearl drums with Zildjian cymbals?
And what would Jesus’s style be? Who are his influences?
