I would just like to walk everyone through the intellectual gymnastics and self rationalization of our esteemed footprints.
footie replies with a comment about Charles Manson thinking the same thing about the John Lennon song, 'Imagine'.
(Then he throws in a little strawman about John and Julians relationship)
dogsgod corrects footies misconception about Lennon, Manson, Imagine, and Helter Skelter.
In typical footie fashion. He implies that he did not make a mistake, but that it was in fact stiletto who made the connection between 'Imagine' and Manson.
Here stiletto makes a comment that reflects John Lennons song 'Imagine'More people would live in the moment and appreciate what they have now, in the present, during our short and precious time on the planet. No one would be trying to earn brownie points to get into an imaginary eternal after-life and the focus would be this life. There would be a greater appreciation and respect for other human beings and living things. And yes, there would be more sorrow for the less fortunate and weaker among us who'd lose their crutch. IMO.
(John Lennon's "Imagine" paints a pretty picture)
LOL, yeah, Charles Manson thought the same thing.

Here, footie again references 'Imagine' in relation to Charles Manson.Manson saw subliminal meanings in Lennons music, many see subliminal meanings and pretty pictures in Lennons "Imagine." That is the connection, basically speaking, it is an insanity born of person own imagination and what they want to personally make and create from it.
Imagine is a song, nothing more, nothing less, it has no meaning and paints no picture. In Lennons own words, clever words which go together, which makes (made) him lots of money. Which was of course, the real intent and purpose of the song, as Lennons own life testifies. Lennon couldn't even be as one, with his own son (Julian).

Actually, it was Paul that wrote Helter Skelter. Manson was in jail long before Imagine was written.

I think you need to pass that message to stiletto.
And you are right, Manson was in goal[sic] before imagine was written. This though doesn't stop people from making subliminal connections to Lennons music, as stiletto has already shown.
