Related: About this forumBlack Sabbath Sabbath Bloody Sabbath Full Version
Are there any recovering-Catholics or half-Catholics who want to comment?
Disclaimer: I was not raised religious, but I dated a somewhat-would-be-victim of a pedophile priest. He loved this album.

I tried to offer something for people to identify their emotions with...
There are a lot of powerful, meaningful lyrics in the album.
rug: if you don't care, you don't care, but there is no need to imitate a chimpanzee and throw handfuls of half-composted-compost, with eggshells in it, at the messenger. That's my nice way of telling you to go blow a goat.

I especially can't take him seriously when it comes to the serious topic of child sexual abuse.
Most likely others will find the song helpful. I'll say no more.
I'll post the lyrics for anyone interested:
You've seen life through distorted eyes
You know you had to learn
The execution of your mind
You really had to turn
The race is run the book is read
The end begins to show
The truth is out, the lies are old
But you don't want to know
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies
The people who have crippled you
You want to see them burn
The gates of life have closed on you
And there's just no return
You're wishing that the hands of doom
Could take your mind away
And you don't care if you don't see again
The light of day
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies
Where can you run to
What more can you do
No more tomorrow
Life is killing you
Dreams turn to nightmares
Heaven turns to hell
Burned out confusion
Nothing more to tell
Everything around you
What's it coming to
God knows as your dog knows
God blessed all of you
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Nothing more to do
Living just for dying
You know you had to learn
The execution of your mind
You really had to turn
The race is run the book is read
The end begins to show
The truth is out, the lies are old
But you don't want to know
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies
The people who have crippled you
You want to see them burn
The gates of life have closed on you
And there's just no return
You're wishing that the hands of doom
Could take your mind away
And you don't care if you don't see again
The light of day
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies
Where can you run to
What more can you do
No more tomorrow
Life is killing you
Dreams turn to nightmares
Heaven turns to hell
Burned out confusion
Nothing more to tell
Everything around you
What's it coming to
God knows as your dog knows
God blessed all of you
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Nothing more to do
Living just for dying

Some people get it.
You interpret it differently.

No-one else does.
