Gawd, there's plenty of things I don't know. But this much I know: the song is beautiful because it force you to think of Christ or God in a different perspective. What if God was a man? Not just a man, but a beggar, all dirty and ugly, would you, theist, let him in your house?
Yes, we understand the point of the song. It's just not profound. You say crap like that around a cop and you'll get your car searched.

And no, I wouldn't let a dirty God into my house. I have principles.

Profound? Profound! Profound?

Lemme tell you something about things that are profound. In fact, I'll do better than that I'll let John Lennon tell you something about profound:

from Come Together
Quote:
One and one and one is three
In a world dominated by a religion that believes there are three persons in one God. That line is as profound as you can get.

It is a crazy world that we live in, wherein the wisest is the one who knows that he does not know, wherein the bravest is the one who can say he is afraid, wherein common (sense) and obvious is profound.
