    Interesting statement. Talk us through your thinking.
    People who mock God puplicly often regret doing so. John then 26, only went on to live for another 19 years.
    George Harrison lived to 58 and Ringo and Paul are still around. God is not mocked.

      The loving god kills those who mock him?

        If God had any compassion for Mankind, Then he'd have Got rid of Ringo first.

          If God had any passion for Mankind He'd launch a rescue Mission to save all of us....

          And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

          For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

          Ironically the UK is too busy running to the next Christmas party to notice.

            Lennon said that in 1966 and was shot in 1980. So it looks like God is even quicker moving than you thought for killing well loved singers.

              Thanks Lardy; I was obviously more tired than I thought last night, indeed 14 years isn't very long to live when you are just 26. Lennon was very much loved and extremely talented, but neither of those things have any bearing on our dealings with God. In fact many may say that God granted John all that talent and his 'thank you' was to insult the only one who could save Him, God's Gift to Man.

                surely the only one who needed to be saved was the gunman.
                Evil man, Lennon good.

                  Or some may say that 14 years seems quite long to wait for punishment, and there are plenty of other famous people who have blasphemed without punishment. In fact, Lennon seems to be the only one. Perhaps he was unlucky.

                    The Beatles were not mocking the creation you call God. They were mocking (if that is really the right word) the people who slavishly believe in all that nonsense in the face of genuine love and joy for modern culture. It was a daring and provocative thing to say in that place and at that time, but was more a challenge to deep rooted conservatism than a theological argument. A throw away comment that has resonated for nearly 60 years. And still gets under the right skins!

                      Creation of God! (are you still on that pop?)
                      Each day, throw away comments cost people their jobs, their relationships and sometimes their lives.
                      Stick to politics, this isn't your field of knowledge.

                          You mean to say that you think that there are some flaws in his theory that God took revenge on Lennon by engineering an assassin by:

                          - putting him in an abusive childhood;
                          - making sure he was bullied at High School so that he dropped out;
                          - ensuring he became a born again Presbyterian so he understood the purpose and context of the mission he was chosen for;
                          - saved him from his attempted suicide by sabotaging the hosepipe and got him regularly sacked from a variety of jobs finally driving him to alcohol abuse to ready him for his task.

                          Why you can't see this plain truth is beyond me!

                            Yeah the CIA didn’t like how popular he was, still, he had a pretty good life, albeit tragically cut short.

                              George was the most spiritual out of all of them…..why did god give him brain cancer? That’s a bastard of a thing to do no?
