Fuck Christianity, and poor musical production too

Take some superstition
Mix it with some lies
Feed it to the gullible
In moralistic guise
Murder your opponents
And slander their beliefs
Do it for the glory of
Your gory prince of peace.

Fuck the baby Jesus
Fuck the Virgin, too
Fuck the crucifixion
Fuck His holy wounds
Fuck the resurrection
Fuck the Heavenly Host
Fuck the Father
Fuck the Son and
Fuck the Holy Ghost

[...] Hey hey hey
Fuck Christianity

O Lamb of God, O scam of God
And the greed for which you stand
You twist our healthy natures
There’s blood upon your hands
And all your solemn teachings
On heaven, hell, and grace
Are just a lot of empty talk
To keep us in our place....
Odor of Pears, "Fuck Christianity", Crown of Thorns, 2000.

Pithy, polemic lyrics sung to the march of a ... MIDI guitar. My issues with this song are what I suspect is poor quality instrumentation, and mixing. There are instances when the lead singer's voice is drowned out by (what sounds like) a MIDI keyboard. Listen to the full song for free on Deezer.

Blasphemy (The Victimless Crime) by NOFX

Listen

I’ll throw a pie in the face of piety
I’ll torch a Torah right off a bridge
I am a reverend of irreverence
I’m a shill for any sacrilege
I understand that faith in a deity
Helps the masses who are having hard times
But blasphemy like prostitution
Are clearly victimless crimes
Blasphemy, blasphe-you, Jesus Christ the blackest Jew
Blasphe-you, blasphemy, poisonous pedagogy
I’m an unbeliever, I’m a heretic
I’m gonna projectile puke off a pew
I’m a trouble making immature imp
I’m gonna turn your other cheek for you
I understand we all need something to believe in
I believe I’ll never be given wings and
I’m sorry if it’s up there cuz I didn’t think
A song was gonna hurt its feelings
Blasphemy, speaking deadpan
Apparently this god has got a master plan
Now they call foul, pure heresy
But ya gotta wonder, does he have a plan B?
Horus similar to Mithra, Attis analogous to Krishna
Jesus, different name same story
All based on ancient Egyptian allegory
My position hasn’t been occulted
It can never be more overstated
My intelligence has been insulted
So my tongue lashes out in defense
Anything that is your holy or sacred
I’m gonna desecrate and use in jest
But you’ll never hear a crack about Mohammed
Cuz I don’t wanna get shot in the chest
Blasphemy, isn’t this fun
Rob a rabbi, bugger a nun
Blasphemy, want some more?
Mother Mary, the virgin whore
