NO CHRISTIAN WOULD HAVE "IMAGINE" SUNG AT HIS FUNERAL

[MAGAISDUM]

Beautiful song and perfect performance by Garth and Trisha.

Somewhere between Heaven & Earth, I hope that President Jimmy Carter gains his *Angel Wings* and looks down upon us, from time to time. I met him, several years ago, when I worked in Guest Services, at the Peachtree Plaza, in Atlanta, Georgia. Even then, he had that contagious smile!

This was President Carter's FAVORITE song. Seeing the deeper meaning and implications of the song requires opening one's heart and mind to universal spirit. When you embody goodness, when God's compassion is seated in your heart, there is no need for the human construct of religion. The lyrics serve as a model of perfection of the spirit, the overcoming of human foibles and vices. They poetically illustrate our collective yearning for peace and brotherly love, aspirations for wholeness, the manifestation of virtue and compassion

[AnneMoshtael]

Lovely. So peaceful. My hope for our world. Mr Carter did his very best ♥️🙏🏼🌟🌍🤗♥️

Both jimmy carter and his wife were deeply religious Christians
John Lennon song imagine is a deeply atheist song advocating communism
Seems unlikely the Carters would have chosen that song at their funeral

[michelecuprak]

Beautifully said!!! Amen!!! Great Man of God!!! Family!!! Prayers!!!

[torbengodskesen]

[RhondaFuto]

[michelecuprak]

Hope for our world!!! Peace and Happiness!!! Loving People and Caring!!! Amen!!!

a wonderful song - but i never thought i'd ever hear it played willingly in a church.
"imagine there's no heaven"
"and no religion too"
all the people living life in peace

[JxBx]

“Imagine there’s no heaven”…at least not for Jimmy Carter

[HaroldPreuss-puty]

So according to the song where is president carter now? Not in a better place and not with his wife?

[Jay-ikge]

Garth Brooks the phoniest performer around.

[josh-clfl]

No possessions trump must be like wtf 😳

[dpawsum]

What an Anti-Christ song. Stupidest song to sing at a funeral. Maybe fitting for this President...
