They prosecuted some poor sucker in these United States(but i'm italian hihi)

For teaching that man descended from the apes

They coulda settled that case without a fuss or fight

If they'd seen me chasin' you, sugar, through the jungle last night

They'da called in that jury and a one two three said

Part man, part monkey, definitely

Well the church bell rings from the corner steeple

Man in a monkey suit swears he'll do no evil

Offers his lover's prayer but his soul lies

Dark and driftin' and unsatisfied

Well hey bartender, tell me whaddaya see

Part man, part monkey, looks like to me

Well the night is dark, the moon is full

The flowers of romance exert their pull

We talk awhile, my fingers slip

I'm hard and crackling like a whip

Well did God make man in a breath of holy fire

Or did he crawl on up out of the muck and mire

Well the man on the street believes what the bible tells him so

Well you can ask me, mister, because I know

Tell them soul-suckin' preachers to come on down and see

Part man, part monkey, baby that's me

lyrics? So he also believes in killing sprees? Leaving your wife and kids in Baltimore? Lyrics are stories, characters. Bruce draws on what he knows, he was raised Catholic and went to Catholic school. Forget lyrics and listen to waht he says like "GOD I DON'T BELIEVE IN" and "Another reason for me to hate the Catholic Church" Or just read Clarence's book where he says "Bruce is an atheist"

Steroids...why do you think this? Because of his build.? It is well known he runs 4-6 miles 4 times a day and lifts on the others...even on tour, he finds a gym. My brother in law was at an all night gym and saw him..comes in with baseball hat and glasses. His regime has paid off WELL as he still plays his HARD 3.5 hour concerts..ALL OVER THE STAGE at 63..

Read his latest best selling Bio "Bruce" by Carlin...perhaps you can be a true "authority" after that.

Watch VH! Storytellers in which he takes questions from the audience. He says he is a "Runaway Catholic..said, 'See ya suckers!" after 8 brutal yrs in Catholic school (nun made him sit in a trashcan, nun allowed younger kids to punch him...). He said, "Those beliefs stay with you, the morals in some ways. I have 3 'pagan" babies at home..they will choose what to believe'. He is very ANTI-Catholic though..not seeing humans and infallible.

The scopes "monkey" trial was ALL about religion. Scopes was a teacher who refused to teach creationism because it has no scientific basis. He was put on trial because the law at that time in that state required teaching creationism. Frankly, you could not be more wrong.

We have also to say that Bruce, after the 9/11, began to take his sons to the church. There's much tension in that man.

@johnnyM809 Steal some more great people for your cause. With your argument, do you realize you could take me as well? This would be rather disingenuous of you, but I'm pretty sure you don't care. Rally as many people to your cause as you can, but reason and logic are going to take your children while you are so busy running this campaign of silliness.

Lyrics are ART not an expose into his beleifs. If you take Bruce's Lyrics litterally than that means he WANTS Tony Little to Kill himself, he wants an Eye For an Eye for 9/11. Lyrics are ART not his prayers. Now if you want FACT rather than guesses made based on fictional lyrics try NON fiction like Clarence's Autobiography where he states his CLOSE friend Bruce is an Atheist. Or go to the Youtube video of GROWIN UP from Giants Stadium 2009 QUOTE "I woke up and prayed to a GOD I DON'T BELIEVE IN

@aronkozin Read his lyrics..particularly from his new album Wrecking Ball, and many others where he refers to God's redemption and forgiveness. He is a lapsed catholic perhaps. but he believes in God, no question about it.

Bruce is 100% a christian...he has stated on many occasions his belief in God and if you look at the lyrics in many of his songs you can see that very clearly. He was brought up a catholic and he uses a fair bit of catholic imagery in his songs. He doesn't care much for organised religion though any more, but his core blief is very much still there.
