absolutely agree. However, my personal experience (and thats pretty much
all I can go on) is that christian rock is rarely not overtly jesus-laden.
Again, nothing wrong with that if you agree with the faith. but if you
don't, then it tends to not be enjoyable. Back in college, I had a friend
who lived on my floor who had like 200 Christian rock cds. he was always
bringing them over to listen to. and each time he'd be like "oh you'll love
this one." and i'd listen to the music which was ok, but then the lyrics
would start up and it just killed the whole experience.

I was just throwing in a bit of humor, no animosity meant.
