Do themes such as Satanism or Anti-Christianity Affect Your Metal Preferences?

[Astrum]

this thread should've died long time ago, let it go.

old as father time, but fucken hilarious..

 

[ohiogrinder]

Yes they do. I can only tolerate stuff like Mercyful Fate.

I listen to metal for a lot of reasons. I DO NOT listen to metal that dogs my religion.

you are weak.

It's called open-mindedness.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

you are weak.

its called christianity

 

[valerus]

you are weak.

And upon reviewing the bands that you like...I wouldn't think anything less of you.

Our musical tastes and probably ethics are polar opposites.

So how about you respect my opinions and I will respect yours.

just because I listen to anarchist bands, doesn't mean I'm an anarchist. don't assume anything. in fact I'm very un-pc and offensive.

restricting yourself from music based on religion is weak and close-minded, sorry

just like restricting yourself from playing Grand Theft Auto or Devil May Cry is weak

exactly. although most Christian rock does suck (not because they are Christian, mind you, but because the music doesn't usually click with me) I do like Trouble and many christian doom bands. I can also listen to Satanic stuff, atheist stuff, etc.

people's beliefs don't make music suck.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

um. I wont listen to christian music no matter how good it is.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

the christianity in the music has a big role in making the music suck IMO

difficult to make quality, passionate, imaginative, creative, daring music when you're afraid of violating social/religiously acceptable behavior

but that's just my perspective

Krigly is one of my favorite posters

well, to each their own.

funny thing is, I don't add christian bands on myspace unless I really like them, which is rare.

most christian bands who try to add me, I usually send them a message saying "no thanks, I'm Pagan"

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

what is difference between pagan/atheist??

huge difference. a lot of pagans are polytheistic and often worship spirits of the earth, air, and sea, Often stemming from ages old tradition.

atheists don't believe in anything, to be honest.

aw I thought pagans didn't believe in anything either

edit: I dont. not yet at least.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

so what the hell do you believe in??

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

not sure.

 

[Hell Awaits Us All]

then why don't you just call urself an atheist??

 

[CF87]

A pagan is not a christian, jewish, or muslim, this is not saying paganism does not have any kind of beliefs/a god were say an atheist does not believe period.

"a person who does not acknowledge your God"

"not acknowledging the God of Christianity and Judaism and Islam"

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

then why don't you just call urself an atheist??

haha, why would I do that?
