Stop spreading this misinformation. A friend is someone who cares enough to show you the error of your ways and offers to help you find your way into the House of the Lord.

We could argue semantics, but that would get us nowhere.

The definition of a friend is relative. And truely, a friend is someone who will support you through whatever you decide to do in life. Whether or not that is the one true definition of the word "friend", any man who accomplishes this is truely a man worthy of of the title.

A friend lets you burn in Hell? I'm trying to save your soul and that makes me the best friend you ever had. Let me introduce you to Jesus. Then you'll know what a True friend is.

My ideals are not being ripped.
Just because Robbie was in some horror movies with long finger nails does not mean he can rip apart my world. I don't care how he plays the guitar. I'm interested in the Bible!

Oh, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the bible teaches of love, of acceptance. Of loving your neighbor as yourself. Let me know when you find a part of the bible which specifically states that any reference to a snake is a sign of the devil's presence. To say such a thing would be ignorant.

Surely, the snake is indeed the symbol of evil. Of the devil, the same way that the cross is the symbol of Christ. But every time you see two lines crossing, it does not imply that christ is behind the symbol, even though it technically fits the definition of a cross.

If you're going to have a homo man crush on someone, at least pick a heathen thats still ALIVE. Boy George, George Michaels, Mick Jagger, and Elton John are all available. Avoid necrophilia, and send your lust in their direction. You're disgusting.

God Bless

Of course, I'm a fan of Jim Morrison, so I must be a homosexual.

No, not gay here, and I'm not anti-Christian, I'm merely anti-ignorance. Anti-hate. And this contains an abundance of both.

Why must I explain the Bible every time some newbie comes on here? Can't you kids be bothered to read it for yourselves and ask us what a verse means? It's a big book and difficult to quote so many passages at once. Make some effort and read it yourself.

I'll repeat myself; the presence of a snake does not mean that the devil is signified, and the bible never states that it is. Satan is portrayed as a snake in the bible. Not every snake on the damn earth is satan and it would be stupid to say otherwise.

Are you really going to make your whole argument rest on the idea of symbolism? On the idea that since Morrison talked about snakes, he must have been in league with the devil?

Perhaps anyone who owns a snake is now evil. We all need to stop going to petstores, they carry snakes. Ostracize everyone who owns a snake from your life; they are the pawns of the devil.

You people, I swear.

I have made an effort, and it's my position that all of you here are severely mislead. To the point where you've forgotten the point of Christianity. You claim that you believe in Christ as your savior and that the one true way is through faith in christ and baptism; yet you spread such hate throughout the world in the process. Defend yourself.

No, we are the ones true to Christs message friend, not the false Christians like you.

We follow The Bible to the letter and spirit it was intended in. If you think we are somehow in error show us chapter and verse and we will show you your mistake.

Your kind never has scripture because your kind does no care for word of God.

Re: The Doors: Jim Morrison's gateway to Hell

Jim Morrison accomplished more in his life than any of you apathetic extremist right wing idiots could ever hope to accomplish.

Do you know what the word apathetic means? You don't, do you?

A hero is someone who rebels or seems to rebel against the facts of existence and seems to conquer them. Obviously that can only work at moments. It can't be a lasting thing. That's not saying that people shouldn't keep trying to rebel against the facts of existence.

The LORD is a fact of existence. I'm sure Little Jimmy Morrissone and his dark master would love it if I rebelled against Our Saviour, but it's not going to happen.

Really? So if you decided you wanted to experiment with the negro/long-haired lifestyle by trying heroin, a "true friend" would be someone who helped you get some smack? I think not, friend.

Oh, correct me if I'm wrong.

Ok. You're wrong.

We hate the Devil and all his works. Nothing wrong with that.

Re: The Doors: Jim Morrison's gateway to Hell

Son, There's a reason Jim Morrison and Morrissey share so many consonants and vowels in common. Do you know what that reason is? I'll give you a hint: Christ knows.

It looks like you have some consonants in common with them as well, dear Sir.

Re: The Doors: Jim Morrison's gateway to Hell

The LORD is a fact of existence.

God is NOT a fact of existence. a fact of existence is (for example) the self.

Really? So if you decided you wanted to experiment with the negro/long-haired lifestyle by trying heroin

I'm sorry what? if you wanted to experiment with the negro/long haired lifestyle and try heroin?? do only coloured people and long haired people do heroin? i'm sure i've seen/known of people with skin heads and who are white that do heroin too........

i have long hair does that mean i do heroin even though i've never even seen the stuff in my life?

Fact of existence

Re: The Doors: Jim Morrison's gateway to Hell

This is extremely ridiculous.
Before I begin let me say, I am a devoted Christian. I do read the bible, and I have accepted Jesus as my lord and savior.

Jim Morrison, was NOT satanic, and I can easily explain.

First of all, all your info is incorrect.

This quote-
"If the doors of perception were cleansed, every thing would appear to man as it is: infinite" is not absurd. It is actually common sense. God put us in a world where we would be controlled by Laws, Rules, Government, Environment, everything around us is a limit. These are all "Doors" or ways to limit the way we perceive things. A world without these doors can only be described as Heaven (infinite-- something we can't possibly imagine with our human minds).
-----------------------For example, what makes a person ugly? We were conditioned to believe what is a physically unattractive person as we grow up. If we were told ugly is good, we would all want ugly people. As soon as we are born we lose all sense of judgment. We only discover (know and believe) what we are told.




Next wrong fact--
Arrested in Miami in 1970 for indecent exposure.--- It was actually 1969 and he never exposed himself, I dare you to find one picture out the millions that he actually exposes himself.


Next wrong fact-
Died of a heroin overdose-- his death was reported as "heart failure" from an unknown source. and many of his friends say he was very afraid of needles. And his song, "Five to One" was based on his disgust towards junkies (heroin users). Especially towards his real lover Pam, who was a disgusting junkie.

Next--
The Song---
"In The End"

"Ride the snake" does not mean the serpent from the Genesis chapter!!!!!!!

Someone on this forum already explained the true meaning of the piece. The snake represents conscious society.

Next----
The Patricide excerpt of the song "The End", is an allusion to the famous tale called, "Ode-pious Rex." Morrison was an avid reader, and wanted to place this section into the song. He didnt want to encourage any death, he himself was a pacifist who wrote anti-war songs (unknown soldier, and Peace Frog).

Next--

• Light My Fire: Was not written by Jim Morrison, the guitarist wrote it, and it obviously directed towards the "fire" in a relationship with a woman. To even think of it as Fire from hell shows you are only focused on one thing; trying to find anything satanic in anything he said, even if its not.
• The Crystal Ship: This song is not about crystal meth! It's about losing a woman. And wanted to have one more kiss before forever losing her.
• Five to One: Does not encourage rebellion, the song is about the baby boom in the late 60s. The ratio from newborns to adults was 1 and 5.
• Crawling King Snake: Morrison experiments with doing negro music, and what is wrong with that? It's not called Negro music, it is called, "The Blues".
• Back Door Man: A song glorifying adultery? yes may be true, but guess what? He didn't write this song!! Willie Dixon did!

May I go on???--------

Find one quote in which Morrison said directly " I am a satanist"-- If he truly was spreading satanism and hate, he would have no problem saying that.

All I see here is a continuous effort to find anything he said, and just turn it around to mean anything satanic. Since his words never directly encouraged satanism, you try to find them indirectly. All this proves is that words are unreliable.

I've read his poetry books, and they are basically an autobiography of his emotions in poetry form. Never did he express hate. What he expressed mostly revolved around finding a meaning to life, and love.

All the crazy things he did revolved around curiosity, he never hurt anyone or attempted to do so. While everyone here is trying to hurt his reputation as one of the most influential and ground-breaking artist.

Fight with me all you want.
