The Judas Conspiracy.

Right, I feel the need to blog about Lady Gaga's song 'Judas' because the amount of bullshit I have heard and seen over the meaning behind the song is getting ridiculous. People all over Youtube and Tumblr are convinced that they know Lady Gaga and know exactly what she was thinking when she was writing the song. I am the only one who knows the correct story (obviously, not the only one in the world. but I haven't seen a YT video or Tumblr post about the actual meaning behind the song).

For the record, I have read the bible and I do know the story of Jesus and Judas.

Jesus; good, kind hearted, good boy, does everything correctly.

Judas; disobeyed God, bad boy.

Lady Gaga is openly spoken about Jesus and God before. She has been very clever by incorporating the story of Jesus & Judas into her song.

Basically; the song is about Lady Gaga being torn between two men. There is Jesus, the one who she knows she should be with. The one who will love her and treat her right for eternity. Then, there's Judas. The man who she shouldn't love because he is trouble and bad news. However, her heart still clings onto Judas. Her song is about being in love with a bad boy, even when you know it is wrong.


Jesus and Judas are names given to good and bad men. Lady Gaga has been very clever because she has linked the old fashioned names and the story into a modern world where choosing the good boy is perhaps a little boring.

Many, many, many people seem to be totally blind to this obvious concept and say how Lady Gaga wrote the song because she's so religious etc etc etc. Hmm, perhaps so. But Lady Gaga shows that in many other songs and sometimes even with her outfits. No. Judas is about love.

Another thing which annoys me with the whole religion thing is non-Christians who adore the cross sign and abuse it in many ways with things such as jewellery and putting it into their name on some social networking site. Now, I'm not religious. But I do believe in God. And I even know of some atheists(or, opposed atheists anyway) who are no strangers to letting the world know that they love the cross sign. The cross is originally a symbol of Christianity and the power of believing in God. Not as some fashion statement. I say I believe in God, but that does not mean that God rules my life. I just have the thought in the back of my mind. I am certainly not a hardcore Christian. But it just really annoys me how suddenly the cross has become a major fashion statement with those who have no desire to pray to God or have anything to do with Christianity at all. I know everyone is entitled to wearing whatever they want, I'm just expressing my opinion :)
