Disease Of Conceit Lyrics

There's a whole lot of people suffering tonight from the disease of conceit
Whole lot of people struggling tonight from the disease of conceit
Comes right down the highway straight down the line
Rips into your senses through your body and your...

    A song to my understanding may be about one of the several ''cancers'' that have been created and caused in our societies, cultures and traditions throughout the world that's affecting our values in mind, body and soul by ''it's love'' that has been fooled into being caught by pride, revenge and prejudice racism, that's really a anti-kind of love. Like a form of misunderstood anger and hatred that was formed a long time ago, since the Bible days when The Pharasees[like today's Zionists] called the ''fake Jews'' a S.o.S vipers by ''The Real Jews'' who were and are in The Torah and The Word of Jesus that understood what ''it'' was and is. So anyway,this ''disease of conceit'' like in this Bob Dylan's song is the possible damage a destructive Ego can do. When ungodly hunger gets to hungry to climb to the top, while ''it'' manipulates and conceals the truth about the real self that ''it'' wants to destroy with lies and deception that turns on itself eventually ''if'' there's no change to find the right path. This psychological damage that was misunderstood has and could do worse by political chaos used to power.. For instance of what's been happening within and about the state of Israel that is hurting the souls of the people everywhere in need to heal peacefully. Eversince these dreamers called Zionists that hijacked the Zionist ''idea'' to settle the Jewish problem of anti-Semitism on the land of Palestine that was sadly turned into a ''conceited monster'' that developed a love to see hate and suffering there and throughout the world. Where these ''foreign invaders'' made, brought and raised the ''disease of conceit'' upon the people there to become a self centered entity. With the support of the phoniness of the TeleVangelists[Christian Zionists] that hijacked and converted the Good Word of Jesus Christ that was sadly turned into a ''contagious cancer'' that worked together as a symbiotic sickness against having a healthy ''State'' of mind, body and soul. Anotherwords the ''disease of conceit'' is like a self centered racist. The Zionist's Zionism, used as a mask for creating more anti-semites against Jewishness to use for power to control, even when one is protesting anti- Zionism against the State of Israel. Which is not or meant to be really a Jewish controlled state for the Jewish people that the Zionist conjured up for power to control that angered and divided the National Identity of the Palestinian, like was once in Philistia=Palestine who was or could be a Muslim, Christian, Druze, Israeli, Atheist, American, Capitalist, Communist, Marxist, Anarchist, Pacifist, Palestinian,etc,.. Even a Jew Arab or whatever that the Zionist wanted and had us all fight each other foolishly.

    Tele evangelist Marvin Gorman's downfall in 86,Jim Baker in 87, & Jimmy Swagart in 88, all fell due to their conceit & moral faliings. Re: Jimmy Swagart wiki. Dylan wrote this in 89.
    Dylan's mention of sickness of the soul, delusions of grandeur, and the idea that you're to good to die comments was written after tele evangelist Jimmy Swagarts downfall.
    He mentions a precher's transgressions with a prostitute again in The Man With The Black Coat in the same O Mercy album
