They know rock music, any rock music, is contrary to the will of God.
Rock star David Bowie said, "Rock has always been THE DEVILS MUSIC. . . I believe rock and roll is dangerous. . . I feel we're only heralding something even darker than ourselves." (Rolling Stone, Feb. 12, 1976, p. 83)

Who cares? Christian music is lifeless and soulless.

Indeed, Jesus is not a sun god. Saying so cheapens sun gods, and gods in general. Hell, even the god Jesus worshiped wasn't a sun god.
I'm quite annoyed with all these people who try to lump all the deities in the world together.
(2) Music is in itself only that - music. It's a form of expression. What had become lost over the years is the artistic value, which the record companies have aided in because of their own greedy ways. Now adays, it's entertainment and entertainment only - for the purpose of making a profit. Nothing more, nothing less.

Comparing modern day Christians to Conquistadors is a bit of an over statement in my mind. They are not murdering people, only making music. I just think you sound a bit paranoid in that regard.

Goodness sakes, show me one religion that ISN'T trying to beat down your door one way or the other. You make it sound as if the Christians are the only ones making their prescence known. Every religion does it, in one form or another, in order to save your soul. Right or wrong, all are to blame there.

I sure would like to hear your evidence for Christians trying to 'lure' rock and roll listeners away from their music.

Christians will forever have to wear the legacy of the Conquistadors and missionaries, whether modern activities are comparable to theirs or not. Europe wouldn't be Christian were it not for the missionaries so it'd be a bit naive for white Christians to denounce the actions of their spiritual forefathers.
Very true. Difference is that - like it or not - rock and roll has mostly been music for white people (not saying it should be, or that many of its originators weren't black) and Christianity is mostly responsible for the indoctrination of white people - therefore Christianity has been by far the most prolific in terms of permeating rock and roll.
I didn't say they lure them away, I said that they infiltrate. It's along the lines of - "this music is too ungodly for people to listen to so we'll provide a cheap immitation that doesn't corrupt". Christians are constantly trying to 'save' everything and everyone. I wish they'd stay out of rock music. Rock = freedom, Christianity = Chains. "Christian Rock" is an artform made impotent.
I'm sorry orangatom but that whole post was just waffle - poor grammar and sentence structure, and yet you have the audacity to accuse me of being "dumb"?

The sun disc or the sun disc with the rays coming out of the disc is not a accident on the Japanese flag.
Once I began to understand the significance of this..I gave up all holidays and all birthdays....especially christmas. All days belong to my Lord..and not to me. Mind you now..this does not in any way make me better than anyone else...not possible. It does however make me aware of much out here...designed to keep people on a particular treadmill..not of thier making.
Birthdays ..including christmas are a pagan custom. Never were Christian or Hebrew in nature. This knowlege itself makes a joke out of this christmas album once you know.
Dont worry...most "Christians" out here havent a clue and dont ever want to get even close to a clue.
Jesus the Christ for remission of Sins is not the sun god. Not possible.
Maria Stardust on page 1 of this thread makes an excellent post about the art directors. And the sad truth is that many Believers are not well versed in Occult symbolology and patterns of operation....even mathematics. So it would be very easy to accomplish this through marketing strategys.
To my knowlege..there are no symbols for a Christian..not crosses, fishs, birds or anything. If you do not have the Holy Ghost working within you ...no symbols are going to cut it. And there is no symbol for the Holy Ghost.
The cross is the symbol of pagan fertility..the male vertical and the female horizontal. The intersection of the male and female principles. It never was Christian. He was crucified on a pagan fertility cross.
This informations can be found in books like the Two Babylons by Alexander Hyslop for those inclined to heavy reading. Same with the origins of most of our Holy Days.
Before closing I will say it once again....Jesus the Christ for Remission of Sins is not the sun god.
Thanks,
