The Insane Clown Posse has been under fire for their rather idiotic song "Miracles", and even as a Juggalette, I can understand why.
In the song, they call things such as the sky and their children resembling them miracles. I the song, the totally disreguard scientific fact and show a lack of education.
More about this can be explained by Zinnia Jones here:
These are some of what I consider true miracles:
- The parents of a little child dying of cancer are told that he/she has only a month to live because the surgery didn't work. Days pass and it seems like the end, but the next day, the child is feeling and looking better. The doctors do tests and find that the tumor is gone and the child lives a long and happy life.
- A new born baby is sick and about to die. There's nothing the doctors can do, and the same as the child with cancer, the baby lives.
- A little boy is pronounced dead when he drowns at the beach, but in front of his parents and the police and whoever else was there, comes back to life.
- A truly deserving heart transplant patient finally receives a replacement organ right in time.
- A kid who's been in and out of abusive foster homes finally, after so many years of torture, finds a loving family who will never abandon them.
- A person who was once shunned by their family is taken back with loving arms when the family realizes how wrong they were.
- A mother or father finally break their drinking habits and become the parent every kid needs.
- A mother and father find it in their heart to forgive the street racer who hit and killed their daughter. (This one seems almost impossible, but it did happen)
- The human race finds peace on earth and goodwill towards men.
Life in itself is a miracle. I understand the wonder and amazement that ICP have with everyday things, because if you look far enough into it, life is a miracle when you see what so many people go through, how some people don't get to enjoy the little everyday things... But the wording and total lack of respect for the educated is... Well, rather disturbing.
