QuoteI Just Want to See His Face
The Rolling Stones

That's all right, that's all right, that's all right
Sometimes you feel like trouble, sometimes you feel down
Let this music relax your mind, let the music relax your mind
Stand up and be counted, can't get a witness
Sometimes you need somebody, if you have somebody to love
Sometimes you ain't got nobody and you want somebody to love
Then you don't want to walk and talk about Jesus
You just want to see His face
You don't want to walk and talk about Jesus
You just want to see His face
You just want to see His face
You just want to see His face
You just want to see His face
You just want to see His face

That sounds like a believer doesn't want to think about Jesus cause they've got a guy they'd rather think about.

Atheist teenage me interpreted the song as don't want talk about Jesus, just show your face Jesus, but of course he won't, because he isn't.

Someone says in the Youtube comments they found god through this song
Were they being facetious?
You'd think they must be but who can tell?
The beliefs of believers are often bizarre.



Take my advice, don't listen to me.

The term "legally blind" signifies that some are illegally blind. How does that work?

You have to go to a school for the blind, graduate, get a diploma, pass a state exam, and receive a license to be legally blind. It's like practicing law. Then you can have the blind leading the blind, as well as defending them, and it's sanctioned by the state.

Sure, any state will do. Of course, each state has it's own requirements for legal blindness. The state of ignorance is the easiest to get licensed in.

This is good, yes?
Is someone gonna continue to take care of him at home?
