«It’s all about finding yourself» and that «God is in my life».

This is a statement given by Ringo Star to Los Angeles Times. It has been published in many Christians newspapers as «good news». The Norwegian Christian newspaper «DagenMagazinet» even rejoiced with the tittle: «Jesus is greater then Beatles». Even though that Jesus from Nazareth was not even mentioned in the article.

But has Ringo Star found Jesus?

Will he rebuke John Lenon`s statement saying: «Beatles is more popular than Jesus»?

Lets see what Ringo Star is quoted saying:

«I feel the older I get, the more I’m learning to handle life», Starr told The Los Angeles Times during a recent visit to the Grammy Museum in downtown LA.

«I think [spiritual issues] are more prominent», added Starr, who turns 70 in July and recently released a new album, titled Y Not.

Notably, however, while working on his new album, one song that Starr originally intended to be a «gospelly» song, «Walk With You» eventually became a song about the power of friendship rather than a «God song» after songwriter Van Dyke Parks reportedly said he didn’t write about God.

Also on the album is the song «Peace Dream» – Starr’s version of John Lennon’s «Imagine» Unlike «Imagine» however, the world of peace Starr envisions in «Peace Dream» doesn’t require «no religion» as Lennon’s world did.

My comment:

Ringo Star is not an atheist turned Christian. It only took him 40 years to realize that the trance experience from India is a spiritual reality.

When the ex-Beatle says: «It’s all about finding yourself» and that «God is in my life», He has basically become a New Ager. There are many people in the New Buddhism movement that speaks about such «self-realizations».

The only name that seems to be deleted from this «great event» is the name of «Jesus».
