TEXAS FOREVER
ivytyler asked: There was a rumor going around that fun. was short for funeral. Is that not true then? Because that would be a shame. We made a whole parody album around it.

alohadawg asked: Does it bother you that you get religion questions? Some seem like they're attacking you for your views even.
Anonymous asked: I don't think it's really fair to be that absolute in your opinion of religion. I'm not a theologist but I do know that religion doesn't always promote hate- specifically protestism. Looking at the New Test, Jesus dedicated his life to showing love to people that were denoted as "outcasts." Even when he came across people that had committed a crime, he showed them...
anatomyofanoxford asked: So people who are absolute in their certainty are simply scared? You believe faith is weakness? I don't understand how you think that being unsure of all the big questions lends someone strength… what shaped that in you? That's an intriguing twist on typical definitions of strength and weakness.
Anonymous asked: I know you said you take pride in not associating yourself with any particular religion. But I was wondering, how do you believe people and the world came into existence and what do you think happens to people when they pass on?
air-to-the-thrown asked: hey Jack. just wanted to say that I love the new "We Are Young" Video. I was wondering if you could explain the significance of the promo video of the girl with the apple. I thought it was powerful but couldn't think of what the meaning might be. Thanks Jack
inconsistentrecollections asked: What kind of movies do you like? I've really enjoyed 'The Outsiders' and 'Hedwig and the Angry Inch' based on things you've mentioned in the past.

had never seen ‘exit through the gift shop’ …. went to the mr. brainwash show …. thought it was fascinating … then watched the documentary after …. felt extremely cheated / conflicted.

“feeling godless then, what we have done is made technology god. and yet can technology really be the answer when a brand new buick, driven by my close associate, nat zipsky, winds up in the window of chicken delight causing hundreds of customers to scatter? my toaster has never once worked properly in four years. I follow the instructions and push two slices of bread down in the slots and...

apparently every time my mother wears either the fun. or steel train LGBTQ rights shirts people ask her if her kids are gay. is that not the most perfect example of what our problem is as a culture? she wants to make a shirt that says, “i support gay rights and none of my kids are gay.”
Anonymous asked: Hey Jack! I was just wondering what tattoos you have/where you have them, if that's not too creepy.
air-to-the-thrown asked: Hey Jack! My friends and I are huge fans of the band ever since Aim and Ignite came out. We were wondering what is your personal favorite fun. Song as of right now?
thewestmezzanine asked: Just so you know, ever since you answered my ask, I've been getting really awesome messages from people (both Christians and non-Christians) apologizing for what people have done to me and telling me to stay strong. I haven't gotten a single bit of hate, which is a lot better than I was expecting. So, like, thank you for that. I sort of want to make you "thanks for not being a...

Anonymous asked: I feel like Perry's entire message just didn't make sense. It was almost as if he used "religion" and "Christianity" synonymously, refusing to acknowledge that any other type of religion exists. He wants children to be allowed to pray in school and openly celebrate Christmas, but he doesn't mention anything about non-Christian holidays or practices. Ironic how he...
