lmao! Yup, I was told as a child, in music class, that the words were suppose to be "In the garden of Eden", but they were blitzed, and it came out sounding like "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vidda" That stuck with me, lol!
Besides, I love that song...
Love,

That song was perfect in the movie, "Manhunter" with William Peterson trying to hunt down Hannibal the Cannibal.
But we digress.

Re: Which Religoin is right?
Ok, let's just agree to disagree.
So how did that song chart?

Re: Which Religoin is right?
The song has a great percussion solo. My music teacher was a little wierd, but very cool, lol! That's the only song I know by Iron Butterfly, but I think it's great.
A little cheesy, but I like it...
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, [In the garden of Eden] honey,
Don't you know that I love you?
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, [In the garden of Eden] baby,
Don't you know that I'll always be true?
Oh, won't you come with me
And take my hand?
Oh, won't you come with me
And walk this land?
Please take my hand!
I'm diggin it...That's it in my Avatar, lol!

Re: Which Religoin is right?
they're all right. they all agree on so much. you are right, the Universe provides us with great teachers when we need them. Don't forget Jesus also studied the Dead Sea Scrolls with the Essenes. very important!
peace

Re: Which Religoin is right?
I am preeeeeeety certain that Pagan religions, Satanic religions, Buddhism and quite a few others do NOT reconise Jesus... So... How can they all agree?

because there are specific teachings that were previously thought to be completely original and new that Jesus preached, but since the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered we now know that he got these teachings when he was trained by the Essenes.
In fact we now know that at the Councils of Nicaea and Constantinople, 300 years after Jesus lived, the Romans decided to condemn all of the Dead Sea Scrolls and (and the Gnostic teachings) because they proved that Jesus teachings were not unique and divinely inspired.
Highly recommended book: The Lost Years of Jesus Revealed, New Revelations of the Dead Sea Scrolls, by Dr. C.F. Potter

the fact that some religions do not "recognize" certain people as great teachers is besides the point. the ultimate purpose of religion is not to exault a teacher, but to inspire and teach the people. So if we focus on the teachings and not the teachers, they do agree on the most important teachings.
yes, you will say that Christianity does in fact exault the teacher, perhaps even moreso than teach the people, but this is a fallicy. This is a hoax, perpetrated by the Romans 300 years after Jesus lived, when they codified the bible and transformed Christianity into the state religion and used it to control people with fear.
yes, you will say that Jesus said, "look under a rock, and you will see me there." but this is not meant to exault the teacher. the "me" he's talking about is not Jesus the name, the person. It is Jesus the consciousness, the very same consciousness that all great teachers are, and that WE all are too.

Well the unique part... all I have to say is ... duh.
Honestly who said his teachings were unique. I mean he taught common sense to a world of people who overlook common sense.
