Well if you want an honest answer; yes. If there is not one to this thread, it would be the first non-agenda Atheist post that I have ever seen here. And if this thread is non-agenda, it receives my vote for the Atheist post of the year!

The video is NOT about the song..It is about the young man singing it. He could have been singing any song at all, and I would still have been moved.

Imagine if Adam and Eve hadn't disobeyed in the Garden of Eden.


I will say that the young gentleman sang it better than John Lennon, hey but then I was never a Beatle's fan anyway.

No it's not. He's said before, as have most of us, that if we were presented with evidence to the contrary, that we'd reassess our views.

Well I agree, the guy had my emotions ready even before he started singing. And the story of how him and his brother were found, was very moving.

What a story. He will touch many. The body is twisted but the voice is true.

A tear jerker for sure but accompanied by a smile.
It's a great song anyway and he did a good job with it.

Yup, the young fellow sure has a great attitude to go along with his smile too.

As a Christian (and an adoptive mom) I found this young man's story to be very moving and inspirational...really, who the heck cares what song he chose to sing. Thanks for sharing this Sanspeur..and sorry but I've got to say it, I pray God's blessings on Emmanuel's life.
