Yes, he does all the while singing that they are the object of
Satan and that True Believers ought to cut them off.

The whole point of rock music is that it's rebellious, on the edge. You have characters like Jim Morrison, Neal Young, Joe Cocker - guys that are out there. Rock music is supposed to be anti-establishment and pretty much a ...[text shortened]... s just fascist. Christian rock is an insidious influence in society and ought to be banned.

Joe Cocker? Of all the names to choose from, you pick him?

AND (in the same post, no less)

....Christian rock is an insidious influence in society and ought to be banned.

Does anyone else see the contradiction here?

There's nothing quite as rebellious as some homeless-lookin' guy playing a flute and posing like Peter Pan.

Except maybe for a guy who made millions singing other people's music...

I wouldn't break it down that far...the post in general was chaotic. When someone speaks wildly of banning everything from the first ammendment to a specific genre of music, it's hard to take the post seriously.

I remember Stryper, the world's first Christian transvestite band, lol. Look at an old picture of them and tell me they weren't rebellious, at least against their sexual orientation.

I halfway wondered if it was a joke, but I couldn't see much humor in it.

Earlier in the year I was watching Juanita Bynum preach on TBN. Toward the end of her sermon, with the organist piping in, she started singing a song that was so mind-numbingly repetitious that I suspect she was making up the lyrics on the fly. It was kind of like this: "We will magnify His name. Oh yes we will. We will magnify Him. Yes we will. We lift Him up. We will magnify His name..." You get the idea. If it was actually some song that had been formally written by a songwriter, the writer should hang his head in shame at how unoriginal and bland the lyrics were.

I would argue that your post was what was initially humor-deficient.

What would Jesus do... with a pair of leather pants and two cans of hair spray?
