Congrads on accepting Christ! I'm a fellow Christian too. Social D. has always had religious themes in their music. Former bassist Johnny Maurer is a strong Christian. I know that Charlie Q. is a Catholic - just look at the sticker on his bass drum and all the Catholic candles on the drum riser. As far as "TwoBags" and Harding I believe that are too Christians as well. Geekgirl can definetly confirm her husband. "TwoBags" signs a curifix when he signs something.
Thanks for the comment. It definatley makes me rest easier. To know Mike and them will be in Heaven one day. It also helps my concious on continuing to listen to their great music.
I'll still take Black Sabbath over Creed any day.
yeah i dont really think mike is gonna stop using the word "FUCK" and i dont think he should he is an artist and whatever he says is ok with me. would you tell Van Gough to stop saying fuck?
This kinda makes me think of the bit on religion in Another State Of Mind.

yup
could just be me, but...
maybe the PORTRAIT OF CHRIST on his chest gives it away.
we may never know....
I also see all sorts of spiritual stuff in his lyrics, and the struggles he's has had with "the light and the dark side". As he's sang, with his eyes he's looked the devil in the face, and seen God's Holy Grace.
The Church I go to plays sort of modern stuff, but a bit too folky for my tastes, and all praise and happiness. I sit there thinking I'd rather hear some of SD's more "religious songs", or songs like Johnny Cash's "When the Man Comes Around".
As far as his F-Bombs, they don't bother me all that much. Yeah, I guess it would be better if he didn't use them, but it's not Blasphemy as far as I'm concerned.
<font size="2" face="verdana, arial">Yeah theres alot more then I have noticed. I can go back and listen to a song now and find spirtual reference in it where I never noticed before as an unbeliever.Quote:

<font size="2" face="verdana, arial">Thats the way I am thinking... But this service we go to on thursday night, their band had this guitar player. He influenced them to rock it up some.. There for a while, they almost sounded like Green Day in some of their songs. It was definatley a version of what I would call punk. But they have toned it down some now. But they played the other night, "Livin on a Prayer" by BonJovi, live in service. Don't get me wrong I'm no Bon Jovi fan, but obviously someone was inspired enuf in the band that they wanted to bring that to the service. Thats more the style the guitar player was in.. But he's left for school now, so I'm not sure how the band is going to sound now.. But I thought it was cool tho that they felt comfortable enuff to play it live in a service. When i say play it, I mean preformed, not jsut played the bon jovi cd.Quote:
