He did it all for you ... Judith - A perfect circle
You're such an inspiration
For the ways that I will
Never, ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your savior has abandoned you
Fuck your God, your Lord, your Christ
He did this, took all you had and
Left you this way, still you pray, never stray, never
Taste of the fruit, never thought to question "Why?"
It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you...
He did it all for you...
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your dogma has abandoned you
Pray to your Christ, to your God
Never taste of the fruit, never stray, never break, never
Choke on a lie even though he's the one who
Did this to you, you never thought to question "Why?"
It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ as if he knows the reasons why
He did it all for you...
He did it all for you...

It seems as if many people are not understanding this song. Yes when Maynard was younger his mother had a stroke. Maynard is questioning his mothers belifs for so many reasons. This is most evident with "Fuck your god your lord your crist, he did this to you, took all you had. Some people have tried to say that maynard is not trying to down god and i could not find that to be further from the truth. Hes saying that if there was a god why would he do this to you, its not like your the one who drove that spear into his side. Hes saying that his mother was a good worshiping woman with faith in god and none of that paid off. He is trying to figure out how people can be so fucking dumb and blind and it pisses him off that he cant.
Some of what i have read in these posts is very sad. I see people trying to find god in anything. They want to see him so bad they mis interpute and situation they can to make them feel some since of security in their faith. One kid was talking about how his dad had cancer and when the father started to belive in god his cancer went away. He was trying to say this was proof that there is a god. I feel sorry for this person and people like him. Of course his father would change his mind and believe in good, he was weak and weak people need something stronger than themselves to guide them. There are not athiest in fox holes. If all someone can see is the darkness of their test results they are going to try to find the light in whatever they can. Religon sounds great, who woudnt want to hear about eternal bliss. Its when poeple start putting all of their time and faith and hope into god that they fuck up. God did not give you that fucking tumor, the Cigs did and thats why he quit smoking, god had nothing to do with it. And then we have another person saying that if it was not for her hope in jesus crist she would not be here today. I feel so sorry for her. The biggest down fall of man is religion. Religion was used as a way to govern people by fear. Back in the day people needed somthing good to believe in to keep themselves going. At the same time they needed to know that there would be a reward for doing thigs good and punishment for doing bad things. People always want an answer for everything. Religion was a fictional answer to alot of these old questions. Now days we have modern science which not only answers most of these questions, it disproves all aspects of religion in general. To say anything diffrent is what i call blind faith in god. Even though all signs point to something diffrent you still want to have your God security blanket the make your self feel meangiful and important. I think one of the central messages of Tool and A Perfect Circle is to do things for your self. Dont devote your self to a higher power and expect things to be done for you. Get out there and try new things, expirince situations that make you uncomfortable and learn from them. Embrace the random. Religion is the down fall of man. like another post said, God did not create humans, humans created god.
