American Pie

The song American Pie is a secular humanist world view....

God and the Universe:

what is in control?

music is God and music died so therefor so did God, leaving humans sad and without anyone to control them.

Humanity and Identity:

Humans wnat something belive in (music or God), they are sad, hopeless

Humans are material "with no time left to start again"

They have no power

They are innocent, it is the musics' fault..it died and left them

Conflict and Suffering:

Humans are lonely and have no hope

The Universe is flawed because the music died

The flaws are sad and unlucky

Hope and Redemption:

The answer to the human struggle is to leave and get away from your struggles

They find there hope for tomorrow no where..."we all cried"

Values/Morals:

They find value in life through materialistic things

They fear death and prize music and happiness

Truth and Reality:

No God is true because the music died

No supernatural explanation needed
