>>I can't agree that Christianity as a viable philosophy of life is gone, so the poem and the explanation
really makes no sense to me.<<

Well, lest I become a lion in a den of Daniels, I will take the fifth about whether I agree with Cohen's sentiments. I nonetheless think that the lines capture something of the spiritual and intellectual malaise of our times, in this age when Christianity has become a minority interest and anti-communism has become redundant.

>>In my opinion, you need look no further than some of the folks on this thread to see that the Christian message in still in our lives.<<

Are we on the same thread? <g>

JDP,

If I can make a small modification to your comment, I feel that Christ's message is still in our lives. If we all go back to what he said, there is much for us to incorporate in our lives. However the 'Christian' message is very confused. One only need to look at the futile discussions that take place else where to see why the current state of the message leaves many people questioning it.

Henry
