No one laughs at God in a hospital

She was alone on a big stage. A small woman with a big voice. And we all stood still and quiet cause we didn't want to miss any of the words. She was Regina Spektor and we were the audience of the Way Out West festival in Göteborg. Regina has one of the pop worlds most fantastic voices, and she's written one of the most beautiful love songs ever, Samson. Now she's back with a new album, the first single is called Laughing With, a beautiful piano song which has caused some debate concerning what it is about, is it against atheists, is it critique of people who make fun of religion? Maybe the signature hicklimn on youtube says it best:
essentially a critique on people rather than a claim on the existence or non-existence of god. It's just commenting on the fact that it's very easy to dismiss god when you don't really need him.
