However, if that is true, it is a pretty veiled reference.<BR/><BR/>It's possible that there should be a full stop after "misguided fool", but it reads as though there should be a comma or semi-colon. If there was a stop, then the quote of Jesus's summary of the law and the prophets is not necessarily "the words of the misguided fool" at all.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, now I'm a little confused.<BR/><BR/>Any other thoughts?Mark Jaffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472415349302170106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35897761.post-89193920812786045692007-05-01T03:56:00.000+03:002007-05-01T03:56:00.000+03:00Hi Mark!

I am craving some time away with the Father.<BR/>In regards to your question, and knowing Dave Matthew's history with the Christian faith, I take the song as his agreement with the Golden Rule. He is such a peace activist and he respects Christ's teachings of love. I took those lyrics to say the even though the Golden Rule sounds like foolishness, the alternative leads only to violence and ignorance.
