Ask Me Help Desk - Music damning me?

That song is actually called "Annihilation By The Hands of God" by Roadrunner United. Roadrunner United is a band that was formed a couple years back by Roadrunner Records to celebrate their 25th year as a studio(I believe..? ) I love the band and almost every track on the CD. I personally am on the line of crossing over from believing in Jesus, to, not so sure about him. After going to a catholic school for only 2 and a half years of my life in high school, me being of the presbyterian religion, I found that the catholic religion is very torn and contradicts itself a lot. In fact, I believe last week was abortion week. I remember a quote during a lunch it was, "thousands of babies are killed every week because of abortion." then they later went on to make similarities between this and the holocaust. But one thing the Catholic followers NEVER say is along the lines of, "there were also millions of gay people and non-Germans killed". GAY people have every right as we do and music has helped me realize it.

"Equality for every race, sex, sexuality
And every choice to live our lives
And to you bigot cretin ignoramus
Mind your own god**** f**king business" is a quote from a Trivium song called Declaration. People need to not follow what others want. But realize the truth. God, Jesus, and MOST Catholics are very pressuring for you to believe in what they want... Don't follow what they want, do what you want.

I have always liked the adage, garbage in garbage out! Anything that you take in that does not glorify God will cause problems in your spiritual life.

We should always keep in mind that God has given every human being a free will. HE has given every individual an ability to choose right or wrong. Therefore HE did not ban Metal. Rather, HE put onus on us that if we think the words and music are appealing to HIM, praising HIM, we should enjoy it. If not, then we should stop it. And when we call on HIM to give us strength to fight an unresistable tempetation, HE helps us and delivers us.

Devil has been given equal powers to influence a human. Therefore, I have no reason for not to believe in that anti-Christ or anti-God music and songs are written under influence of Satan. And these are to glorify Satan.

John 10:27 tells us, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me."

Fully agree on this adage.

My uncle told me few years ago, "Jesus is the only one who is the most loved and the most hated."

Evil dead,
No matter how great it sounds….
No matter how wonderful the rhythm or melody….
Why listen to something that pollutes your mind and soul?
The Amish have an old saying that is true.
It is. “The more you become familiar with something the more you become it.”
Select that which helps you become more Christian, more God loving and honoring.
The moniker you selected is true Evil is Dead. That is it paves the road to eternal death.
A far, far, better one would be “Angelic Life” or something like that.
I know where you are coming from for I was a disk jockey for eight years and listen to a lot of very rough stuff and, at that time, like it.
I do not like it now.
I got away from it and found much more good stuff to like and become familiar with.
Anything that can lead you away from God is bait that can hook you like a sucker and drag you out of the clean waters of Jesus into hell.
The song that you posted is pure hatred.
Hatred is like an acid, it destroys.
Go with that which is peace, love and kindness.
Peace and kindness,
Fred (arcura)

It reminds me when I was growing up and we would laugh at the guys that said they only read "Playboy" for its insightful, thought provoking articles.

At least, that's what they told their girlfriends.

[QUOTE=Evil dead;

EDIT: WHy are blasphemous metal bands and anti-religious people in general so spineless? Would they have the balls to insult Islam? Or have Christian's really become like Lambs for Slaughter (not saying they can slaughter us but they sure as hell have enough things to say about us.)[/QUOTE]

The bands and the anti-religious people in general bash Christians for 2 reasons:
1. Christians don't fight back. We are the only group of people told to love our enemies.
2. They hate that Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Light and NO ONE comes to the Father except by me.

and maybe a 3rd reason...The religions other than Christianity are no threat to Satan and in fact, fit in quite nicely with his agenda. All are slaves of sin and some are slaves of "good works" they think will get them into Paradise. (Like the suicide bombers)
Wow1 Isn't that the ultimate? KILL people to get to God! That was Saul's idea before he was chosen on the road to Damascus and became Paul.

homesell,
Again, very well said.
