Wow that was a really profound analyzation of this song and for the listeners. I love lots of music but I’ve been playing metal guitar for 30 years. There is a loud voice in that music that wants to be heard. I appreciate your attempt to bridge that on a YouTube video. Thank you for that. It seems these days many are left behind from the current popular issues in the news but there are many that benefit from this kind of content. Let’s not forget them in this swamp! Again thank you!!!

I always thought this song was entirely appropriate because Human beings I feel define themselves by using a method of morality that makes understanding life more comprehensible, even though most of it is made up folklore from thousands of years of stories based at one time on things some people may or may have not witnessed or experienced. But thousands of years ago, people were extremely simple minded and not nearly as intellectual or competent as people are today, so witnessing rather simple events more on the normal side today would have been seen as eternal events of divinity back then, which in turn formed most of the stories that built the foundation for established religion. Then, established religion turned into a method of control for the very way of life for Human Beings. In an example they might say “if you don’t respect my God, then you don’t deserve to survive”. It is immensely unnatural for any organism in the expansive universe to fight their basic primitive nature. At the beginning of life, if our cells would have chosen immortality instead of reproduction, sex and death would be two concepts that would have been completely foreign to us, just as an example.

This perfectly describes why my dad is no longer in my life. He’d always bring up Jesus even after i asked him not to and as a result it’s been almost eight years since I’ve had any contact with him. My choice.

I’ve been a slipknot fan fan since the late 90s. Yes I’m old. They have always helped me through their music. It took til my mid 30s to actually go to therapy. I’m still not perfect. Never will be but to this day if I’m in a bad spiral I can throw slipknot in my headphones and rage out for an hour or two and pull myself out of it. The adrenaline and dopamine hit makes me say fuck what’s going on in my life I’m gonna get through it. And after that I can start to see a little more clearly. I agree with what she said. It may not be the cure for everyone but it is for me when I have to get through a vulnerable moment.

I feel like religion being wrong is exactly the point of the song, maybe there is an honorable mention for not pushing religion onto people but the song talks about the control that religion and religious texts were created for but how he sees through it all.
Maybe “i’ll never kill myself to save my soul” is less about suicide because he wants to go to heaven and more about not accepting suffering for a religion in life for a soul he doesnt believe needs saving. Its funny how peoples interpretations of lyrics vary or even change over time based on personal situation and beliefs.
I love the “you’ve got to lie if you want to believe” before “you’re bibles dont work on me”
Pointing out how you have to ignore the obvious contradictions and discrepancies within every religion/religious text to follow it, but he sees that

I had a history of alcoholism and for years while I was seeking help I heard “you need Jesus” in some sort or fashion. It pissed me off every time because I’m not into that. I would retreat farther and farther from these people who claimed to love and care for me but wouldn’t listen to me. I found a program that was not religious and helped me without shame. I’ve been sober nearly 18 months. She hit the nail on the head with her commentary.

Some would assume Slipknot influenced my in my teenage years. At 38 I can definitely tell you O wasn Not influenced but rather given a voice through their lyrics. I was raised in church and never felt like it was healthy for me. Weird I know, but I was taught to suppress my emotions and to look down on myself whenever my emotions showed. A teenage male with a massive boost of testosterone and energy to power a solar system was considered toxic. I was an aggressive kid with no outlets to express those natural influxes of testosterone safely and productively. The church was convinced I was demonicly oppressed with no concept or regard of my genetic disposition. I wasn’t a violent kid just angry due to the required suppression of that emotion. Christians aren’t allowed to be angry? Its demonic to feel certain ways? Those bibles didn’t read for me, but Slipknot understood and through their music I was able to release those massive bursts of testosterone in ways that were healthy. I went to concerts and moshed my heart out making friends and feeling accepted by the maggots around me. Church tried to force me into a catagorized box that I never fit into. I walked away from Western religion and found my soul at 18 and life has been full of ups and downs, but I do not regret walking away from the Toxicity of the Church and their dictatorship
