No Line on the Horizon is decent. It just came out a few months ago.

Love this. My priest mentioned this interview in his sermon last Sunday. He used the lyrics of Magnificent as the closing prayer and our band played the song as the offertory hymn. Bono is an inspirational force in concert without a doubt.

"At the center of all religions is the idea of Karma. You know, what you put out comes back to you: an <YOONO-HIGHLIGHT class="yoono-link-hover yoono-link-active-link" keywords="eye for an eye">eye for an eye</YOONO-HIGHLIGHT>, a tooth for a tooth, or in physics—in physical laws—every action is met by an equal or an opposite one," explains Bono. "And yet, along comes this idea called Grace to upend all that. . . .</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.worldmag.com/articles/10892"><P>
  The interviewer asks, Like what? "That's between me and God. But I'd be in big trouble if Karma was going to finally be my judge," says Bono. "It doesn't excuse my mistakes, but I'm holding out for Grace. I'm holding out that Jesus took my sins onto the Cross, because I know who I am, and I hope I don't have to depend on my own religiosity."
