And about Brian: he wrote Teo Toriatte. Could it mean anything about his views of God or the afterlife?
Ps. Some have pointed out that it doesn't matter how Queen members feel about God. Of course that's their own business! It doesn't change anything for us, but it's interesting to know their views anyhow.

Before I make any judements, could someone please tell me what the mustafa song is about. It goes on about "allah" which means god in some language.
By the way, that song is very catchy

One last thought: the song Innuendo is very explicit about the subject. It's a loud plea from the human mind which is trying so hard to figure out what this is all about. I feel Freddie hoped in something, but he couldn't be sure, as most people are not. So he begged God to reveal himself. It's a powerful expression of the struggle with the unknown, to which I can totally relate...

Aren't Innuendo's lyrics by Roger?
Yes, they are. But nevermind... I totally agree with Arlene, in every single word. It doesn't matter what religion are you part of (if any at all), what counts are our acts. Being a real human is to believe in your stands, and to respect other's oppinions, and not to harm anyone on purpose. I'm a cathoclic, but don't like the church. It's only human institution, full of hypocrisy and contradictions. But I do believe in God, as a higher being, in nature itself, in universe, you can call it whatever you want. And I believe if you are good person through your life, that's what counts. And members of Queen actually were (in my oppinion). Btw, don't really like this new pope, didn't hear tihs about him hateing rock'n'roll till now, so this is another thing on my list why I don't like him. JPll was great pope, and trully good man. And really modern and non conservative (at least for his age and role in church). Too bad this new pope is such a conservative old fool:((
They may not be conventionally religious - and probably have not lead particularly religious lives but, listen to "is this the word" and deny that they are not spiritually gifted
INNUENDO'S LYRICS ARE BY: FREDDIE MERCURY.
INNUENDO'S MUSIC IS BY: FREDDIE MERCURY.
Jim Hutton, Mary Austin, Peter Freestone, and Brian May have all credited this song to Freddie in various books and interviews.
All have said Freddie referred to it as "wait until you here my BoRhap for the 1990's."
For some reason, there is this conspiracy on who wrote that song, and I don't see why.
The chords, the lyrics... the "lets have a flamanco guitar solo here" are nothing like Roger.

Come on, we are talking about four highly educated intelligent men, so why on earth would they belive in God ?.
Yes I too have heard Innuendo was written by Freddie. And it does sound like his song...both the music and especially the lyrics.

They were intelligent enough to know that all these organized religions are just made up stories and lies and that no one knows anything about our existence.
i believe freddie wrote the music for innuendo, and freddie and roger wrote the lyrics. my opinion on god? well, i believe in an afterlife and a higher power, but like some here said, organized religion is a sham, of course if you hear preachers and schools telling you christianity is real and the rest of the religions are lies, that's what you'll believe, it's called brainwashing. it's pretty clear, freddie and brian were spiritual men. i don't believe roger was an atheist, i think he didn't like organized religion.

To go back to the beginning of this thread with the Deacon interview...Holy shit, is he ALWAYS like that? My God, how mind-bogglingly dull!
And, of course, you can be spiritual without being religious...
