"Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that; I'm right and I will be proved right..."

"Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that; I'm right and I will be proved right. We're more popular than jesus now; I don't know which will go first- rock and roll or Christianity. Jesus was alright, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me." - John Lennon.

This quote by John Lennon was in reference to the Fab Four. Also known as The Beatles.

It's really funny actually how upset the general public got over this. In my opinion it's really not like he was deliberately offending the Christians of the world. He was more sharing his opinion of the faith. He isn't declaring that the Christina faith was stupid or anything, he was just saying that there was a lot to it that he didn't agree with. He is saying that he's fine with the religion. He is just stating that he feels like everything is twisted and corrupted. It really is hard to decipher between the truth and the lies sometimes because of how old the stories are and how long it takes for those stories to be passed down. 

I really think people just over react a little. It's not like other people aren't thinking it.  It's just the fact that he's famous and what he says is broadcasted all over the headlines the minute it comes out of his mouth. Like really now. Who cares? And let's be honest. Okay so he was being a little cocky. But seriously.. The Beatles were big. We're talking defined the musical standard for the 60's kind of big. So yeah, maybe he had a bit of a huge ego. But I mean. Who cares? Let him say what he wants to say. You know?
