Isaiah 2:4 remixed with rifles

"and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." (Isaiah, Chapter 2, v 4.)

though the idea is still potent the imagery may be a bit stale. don't worry, check out the work cesar lopez has been doing.

Street musician César López was playing in front of a Bogotá country club destroyed by a guerrilla car bomb when he noticed an army guard carrying his rifle the same way López plays his guitar. ''I saw that our body movements were the same,'' López said. ``He had his gun. I had my guitar. And BOF! It hit me.''The first escopetarra -- a combination of escopeta and guitarra, the Spanish words for rifle and guitar -- was born a few months later. ''We found the worst human invention, which is the gun, and the most beautiful, which could be a guitar,'' López said. ``And in the end . . . the gun dies and the guitar is born.''

so, friends, let us turn our rifles into guitars. [props to the first person to think of a clever alliterative english version.]
