    what really hits me in this song, is the lines "no one learns from someone they hate your mouth is like a grenade" i have been mean to so many people and said so many horrible things about people without once even thinking about it and i've probably hurt alot of people and it wrong

    I love this album. I love this band. I fell in love with "metal" music when I got inroduced to ATR "All That Remains" but these guys kick those guys' musics in the nads. I'm Christian, and proud to say it, and I think it's great there's music out there like this. These guys are blessed musically and lyrically.

      I'm a fan of both and been listening to ATR longer, so I can't say I agree with you. Most likely you haven't listened to some of All that Remains best and heaviest stuff.

    I have met humble religious people who believe a certain way, and respect other beliefs openly, as long as they are given that same respect. Telling someone they're going to hell for saying that God is something he created is a failure to respect other people's beliefs. So whether he's going to hell or not, your lack of humility along with your judgment upon other people's lifestyles, you'll be going to hell based on your own belief.

    I'm a christian myself and there are quite a few things I believe in, but not everything... I believe in god, who granted me this life, so I can learn that life is precious and shouldn't be wasted. Despite that I believe in god and jesus as saviour, I don't rub it in other persons face and there are some christians that think that everyone needs to believe everything they do! I believe, but I still got my own way of doing so and everyone has the right to chose that for themselves too.

    I may be wrong, but from listening and reading the lyrics I found that this song is about Christians. I am Christian myself, but there is a great number of us that are far too judgmental and are "pushing more than they are pulling", because they are too closed minded to accept those who don't agree with them.

    I am a christian and I am personally ashamed of the way most "Christians" portray Christianity. Because of the way that most Christians act, that is the reason people hate us Christians, not for the faith or Bible itself. But the fact that so many of us are hypocritical and judgmental of everything. Fact is, after reading the entire Bible, I cant see how most "Believers" can even play to be Christians. "No religion, country, or house has ever been destroyed from the outside, but by corruption"

    It's pretty funny, granted many religious people seem to perceive the bible as law, taking literal meaning instead of using them to aim at being a good person. Someone taking that concept and applying it to the other side of things is one of the many characteristics of humor.

    Stop arguing about religion people! No one ever wins! Christians will always be looked at as judgemental because of the radical Christians in the world who don't follow the Bible and judge athiests, when the only reason they aren't Christian is because they don't see things the way you do. Which is fine. God loves them anyways. You know that. I know that. "you are pushing more than you're pulling." it says it in the song we are listening to.

    @8Metaphysicist8 that may be so - but the flaws in ourselves are what created religion, politics and society. To say that they are no flawed is to say WE are not flawed, as we created them. Religion, politics and society are quite like a portrait of our failings. They cannot be blamed, but they can be speculated over to represent the flaws within ourselves. I'm going to leave you to think about that because these comments really can't be that long.

I love abr and their lyrics are amazing but i think thrice TO ME (opinion) is better. im tryin not to piss people off, just tryin to share music.
