Beatles Dilemma

Spent tonight playing Beatles rockband with my children and
grandchildren. Wild and crazy.


My 45 years of fascination with the Beatles leaves me in a quandary.
Their early music was simple, clean, and incredibly good.


But then came the dark years. John's pompous remark about Jesus,
vulgar song lyrics, degenerate lives. It all ended in a moral cesspool.


I have decided to enjoy the early Beatles. Their re-mastered CDs have
just been released. I bought only the first four they did. I'll
leave the rest to others.


Paul became a Catholic. George became an orthodox Christian. John
dabbled with Christianity, due to Yoko's parents' faith. Ringo has
not shown much spiritual interest.
