Armageddon Days are Here Again - The The
 
 "If the real Jesus Christ were to stand up today
 He'd be gunned down cold by the CIA
 Oh, the lights that now burn brightest behind stained glass
 Will cast the darkest shadows upon the human heart
 But God didn't build himself that throne
 God doesn't live in Israel or Rome
 God doesn't belong to the yankee dollar
 God doesn't plant the bombs for Hezbollah
 God doesn't even go to church
 And God won't send us down to Allah to burn
 God will remind us what we already know
 That the human race is about to reap what it's sown"

A pool I used to manage during my summers in college had a water aerobics class full of elderly women.  They worked out to that song.  Even better?  They were Jewish.  Somehow that "I've got a friend in Jesus" line didn't phase them.

Much worse:
 
 I am no feeble Christ not me. He hangs in glib delight upon his cross, above my body. Christ forgive. FORGIVE? I vomit for you Jesu. Shit forgive. Down now from your cross. Down now from your papal heights, from that churlish suicide, petulant child. Down from those pious heights, royal flag bearer, goat, billy. I vomit for you. Forgive? Shit he forgives. He hangs in crucified delight nailed to the extend of his vision, his cross, his manhood, violence, guilt, sin. He would nail my body upon his cross, suicide visionary, death reveller, rake, rapist, lifefucker, Jesu, earthmover, Christus, gravedigger, you dug the pits of Auschwitz, the soil of Treblinka is your guilt, your sin, master, master of gore, enigma. You carry the standard of your oppression. Enola is your gaiety. The bodies of Hiroshima are your delight the nails are your only trinity, hold them in your corpsey gracelessness, the image I have had to suffer. The cross is the virgin body of womenhood that you defile. You nail yourself to your own sin. Lamearse Jesus calls me sister there are no words for my contempt, every woman is a cross in is filthy theology, in his arrogant delight. He turns his back upon me in his fear, he dare not face me. Fearfucker. Share nothing you Christ, sterile, impotent, fucklove prophet of death. You are the ultimate pornography, in your cuntfear, cockfear, manfear, womanfear, unfair, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare, warfare.
 JESUS DIED FOR IS OWN SINS, NOT MINE.
