Gary from Cardiff, United KingdomWar Vietnam John Lennon was now 31 seeing life as a maturing young man. His lyrics on this album on Oh My Love tells you where he is "I see the wind I see the trees everything is clear in my world" He was feeling being alive and as a poet was expressing to us the intimacy of life. Imagine was a wish an aspiration No war no possession no reasons for humans to hate and kill. He had experienced wealth and modest childhood He knew that the answer to why are we here was far greater than having a white Rolls Royce Or House In The Country. Of course he wanted some home comfort but he lived modestly he thought safely in secure accommodation commensurate with his high profile high risk society position. The song coined from Yoko Imagine from her book Grapefruit espoused a world without war weapons and mad men running the world. He knew we needed liberated women to make the world a better place- to effemanise soften male aggression. It is not about atheism bit it is about RELIGION using it as a means to hate not LOVE. He like us wondered what created everything that mattered in all our lives. He did not have the answers just posed the questions. When it came on at the Olympics London 2012 it broke me up tears flooded down my face- somehow that man from Liverpool had become a prophet a saint St.John Of Liverpool he was.

In his engrossing book, my friend John Burke surveys the vast literature on NDEs, examining them in light of the Bible and showing how they can help us live with an eye on eternity."-- Lee Strobel, bestselling author of The Case for Christand The Case for Grace Go-Set National Top 40". Go-Set. 1 January 1972. Archived from the original on 13 November 2013 . Retrieved 1 July 2014– via Pop Archives. Dan from Coos Bay, OregonJohn Lennon's imagined heaven encourages a lifestyle of unrestrained debauchery. Lennon disdained systems that might restrain his own lifestyle. Greed for worldly fame and possessions is antithetical to concepts in this song like brotherhood, love, and peace. Lennon hypocritically imagines eliminating the one who had no place to lay his head – Jesus, and all those who would deny themselves and take up their cross to follow him. John was not the first to imagine such a place as the first one with such an imagination presented himself in the Garden of Eden. Many like John get to know that snake very well and learn to write his deceitful and hypocritical song lyrics. The brotherhood of debauchery is strong but will be overcome, not by might, not by power, by the spirit of truth. Those who believe that Jesus is God are not burdened by him but liberated by him from worldly things. Jesus taught us to wipe the dust off our feet as evidence against those who would not believe the Word of God – not to harm non-believers. Lennon suggests that religion is responsible for man’s inhumane actions to his fellow man. Though this may be true of those with twisted concepts of their religion, it is not true of real Christians.

Shoot, there are other possibilities. Imagine them. Imagine. Sibella from Pretoria, --Anyone who has a problem with the religion part, please read The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins!
