Yesterday I tried to write a novel but I didn't know where to begin so I laid down in the grass trying to feel the world turn.

I'm an atheist, but still like hearing this version of the song because:

1. I like Prince
2. Even if I didn't understand the language of the lyrics, the music is good and moving.
3. The song title and lyrics pose challenging questions to self-described theists behaving immorally on a day-to-day basis.

Music can short circuit critical thought, no doubt.

The key within is balance.



We're all just the same.

Should God be One of us and we had one question.. who wouldn't want to know?
