It is brilliant. They have compiled a massive report into every aspect of why POD are bad:
---------------
Below is an actual email we received from a young Christian? P.O.D. fan. We cleaned up the filthy, profanity. This is not an isolated case. We have received MANY such filthy and nasty email from so-called Christian young people who are fans of P.O.D.
Do you think this "fruit" of Christian Rock pleases the Lord Jesus Christ?
Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
James 3:10
this is in response to the article you wrote on a website about POD. First of all i couldn't care less that POD sang with marilyn manson, it was a movie. As for corrupting the minds of christian youths just look at the d--- world around you, you even corrupt them with your s---. heres a little open defiance for ya.

second everyone is entitled to their own opinion. From the quotes you gave it sounds to me like POD just didn't want to insult a fellow musician theres nothing wrong with that. I think people like you are the real hypocrites. Ill remember to think of you friday when im at the POD concert and those protesters are just self rightous b-----ds like you. Also, manson and POD are really in no way related. I think your aritcle would be better if it were just anti manson, but then again i also like manson, So you go to hell and burn a----le.

What do you think?
Did that please the Lord Jesus Christ?

What's the point though... They could have saved so much money by pointing out that POD suck musically.

Except when they bumble into rock music.
Stay out.
You do not belong.
Music is artistic expression, humans attempting to elevate their minds through playing/listening to music.
Not yet another reason to impost stifling and out-dated doctrines based on fear and ancient superstitions.
> LOL, I really don't like the christian way of life. Involves having to be
> somewhere on a Sunday. Bah
better then being in prison
Hmmm...I wonder what Ant has to say?
I think it was Jackass, where this bloke dressed up as a devil, started picketing around some city, saying he's really not that bad. One bloke attacked him, and I mean ATTACKED him. Went right for him, punched him several times in the head, broke his picket in two.
It's... disgusting, really. I'm not going to heaven? Sorry, find me the parable of "pessing off someone who thinks they're better than you", and show me thats a sin, and yup, you're probably right.
And with all the crap that goes on here? What do they do? Pray. Sit on their backsides and pray.
I'm not a religious person. If I sit and hope somebody else does something for me, I'm not going achieve a lot. If there is a God, respect him, don't keep asking him to do stuff, because he'll bet a bit pessed off too, I expect. Oh, and sorry for not writing him as Him, but if I was God, I really wouldn't care. And what if it's a Her? You're buggered then, aren't you?
Basically: Religious groups are a bunch of people that I doubt whoever God is will be very proud of. People that go out there, make something of their lives, NOT try to change everyone to their way of thinking, but at least help people in need... these are the people that deserve a heaven, the people fighting for one. If we're really God's children, does he want us to rely on him all the time to solve our own problems? So why pray? Why sit around on Sundays listening to why heaven is so great? You're not doing much there. How about every Sunday, instead of listening to a preacher tell you that when you pass away it'll all be fine, you go and raise money for something, or go talk to your family, or do something for the community.
I'm not the perfect person. I give money to charity, I pleasure myself, without a partner [slaps face in disgust], and sometimes, sometimes, I even pick my nose in public.
Am I going to hell? Let the powers that be decide, please. After all, you look up to them so much, why don't you trust their judgement?
I have spoken, you don't have to agree, but that's what I say.
Now I'm going to browse some of the posts on here, see if anyone has a problem I can help with.
*clears throat*
Do NOT start bringing religion into rock music.
Ok? This world is screwed enough thanks to people forcing their ideas of their world onto others.
That includes *any* religion, not just one in particular.
This really annoys me.
Do I go to churches and try to dissuade them from believing?
Nope.
Do I stand outside the church shouting "Why wait for heaven? Why not try and realise a heaven on earth now? Just stop this crap and relax, stop waiting for an eternal reward and try to get it now?"
Nope.
So, Christian rock?
Fun off.
Hari Krishna rock? (Ray Cappo and Shelter, I'm looking at you her)
Fun off.
Rock music is *supposed* to be hedonistic, dirty and fun.
That's why it's the devil's music.
Keep religion out of it
Thanks for listening to the Rv Goatboy
> I just thought that I would add that I am not anti-christianity.

I'm sort of. I don't mind it if they do not mention it at all, but I am strongly against them saying "God intended this" and so on. It really infuriates me that they assume we've all sinned before we were born and therefore are sinners. But it's alright, god's almighty and much better than us lowly scum and he MIGHT forgive us. But only if we're sorry for things we haven't done.
The only course of action when faced with these bigots is to laugh at them for the small-mindedness they display on such a regular basis.
I repeat, I have nothing against Christians.
