Actually, there are a lot of good Christian rock groups out there. My son loves Pillar. I’m more partial to Skillet.

Brother Metal…

At first glance, Cesare Bonizzi looks like the archetypal Capuchin monk – round-faced, stout, with twinkling eyes and a long flowing white beard. But beneath his robes beats a heart of metal.
Brother Cesare is the lead singer in a heavy metal band whi…

I’m relieved. I thought he said “…when I went to a Metallica concert 50 years ago…”

I knew time was moving quickly, but…crikey!

Awesome

Not really out of the norm either. Channel 13 (don’t do it no more for some reason) but late at night used to play hardcore Christian rock and rap. Some it was pretty dam cool. Didn’t hear much of the monk but he had the hardcore style sound.

The church should never sway from the what the written word is (the bible is not a living document) but there is no reason some good fun cannot be had.

You’re not metal unless you’ve got Voivod, Venom and Slayer in your collection.

Celtic Frost doesn’t count. Maybe Mercyful Fate.

Period.

Unicorns are real. Just as fossils caused ancient people to speculate all sorts of creatures (elephant/mastadon skulls: cyclops), these sorts of oddities caused the 'legendary' unicorn. Ancient people were in many ways smarter than us. If civilization breaks down, how many people can make their clothes, shoes, and farm?

Sorry. The Hadidic Jews have the rap and reggae markets cornered already…

Look out Lemmy this monk is about to rip your head off.

Impossible. The only way you'll every get him is when he's killed by death.

It all seems as daft as singing about pixies and unicorns.

LimeyGeek on July 18, 2008 at 4:37 PM

and I suppose you have proof that pixies and unicorns never existed? ;-)

(There is fossil evidence of a horned horse-like creature), but the proof of the devil is all around us – just look. Oh yeah, almost forgot: “He has blinded their eyes
and deadened their hearts,
so they can neither see with their eyes,
nor understand with their hearts,
nor turn—and I would heal them.” John 12:40
