Fred39, sorry to upset you, but I have not yet changed my mind. For the record, I am atheist, so I have no hidden agenda when proposing that this song is about 'Perry, Casey and Xiola spending their days together in a haze of sex and drugs' with the theme of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I know that Perry used more drugs than we would imagine possible, makeing him the last person on the planet to act as a poster boy for a religious movement. But if you listen to the song and think about what I wrote I think it will become more and more convincing. I was surprised myself, after having listened to this song so many times, to figure out the reason for all the religious symbolism. I have read interpretations on this song, and have even read articles where band members make mention of this song, and they all say that it was about a drug fest orgy. However, I don't see how that would explain the religious theme of the song. Furthermore, this is not the first song by Jane's Addiction with a religious overtone (e.g. "Had a Dad", "Ocean Size", "Idiots Rule").
If you don't agree, I'm sure your not alone. But explain to me why I am so wrong as to be an 'utter fool'? Am I that wrong? Why bring up so many obvious Christian symbols? And why do they all pertain to the resurrection of Jesus? Why not other Christian symbols? Again, I am ATHEIST... I have no hidden agenda. I am not trying "Spread the Word of God". Either way, that's what I think.
PS - How I Could Just Kill A Man is probably NOT a good Samaritan... lol. At least we can agree on that.
