"A religion, old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the Universe as revealed by modern science might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths. Sooner or later, such a religion will emerge." -Carl Sagan

Angel releases album
Sinead O’Connor releases ’Theology’ album 15 years after tearing pope photo
The always fascinating Sinead O'Conner has released a new album, titled 'Theology', inspired by religion and Biblical scripture:
"...There’s a lot that’s beautiful about religion," she said. "It’s just you get some ... nutters that misinterpret it..." Islam "essentially at its core is a very beautiful religion," she said. "You’ve got a very small bunch of fruitcakes bringing that religion into disrepute. Same in the States, you’ve got people like George Bush bringing Christianity into disrepute..."
It figures that a woman with the vocal cords of an angel would come up with something like this. I've always been mesmerized by her voice. I think she'd reduce me to a quivering blob of jelly, just reading the lunch specials in some greasy spoon diner.

i'm right there with you. Can't wait to hear this. Universal Mother drops me to my knees.
Me too. I'd love to see her perform live. Then again, I might wind up depersonalized, collapse in the fetal position, weeping at her feet.
