“ These are the same people that tried to pin the name Judas on me. Judas, the most hated name in human history! If you think you’ve been called a bad name, try to work your way out from under that. Yeah, and for what? For playing an electric guitar? As if that is in some kind of way equitable to betraying our Lord and delivering him up to be crucified. All those evil motherfuckers can rot in hell.

If “Judas” is the worst name you’ve ever been called, you are probably a rich, white, heterosexual dude.

Yeah, I sure can’t think of anything in Dylan’s personal background that would give him cause to take great offense at being called a Christ-killer.

Ha. True enough, but I’ve been called some Jewish names, too (not all as indirect or ambiguous in intended meaning as this one), and the gender-related stuff has always both hurt more and contained more potential to oppress.
