P.O.D.'s New Album

[snozola]

So P.O.D's newest album came out and I love it.  They have been silent for nearly a decade and they still haven't lost their kick ass ways.

     While listening to their last song on the album;

"I Am"-  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-g757boWKU

I heard Sonny Sandoval drop the f-bomb.  A lot.  "So tell me who the forget is HE?"

     I am a christian and I like christian bands such as P.O.D.  But, I curse on occasion.  The Bible tells us to not use the lord's name in vain, so I try not to say expressions that do so.

     The Bible also tells us not to use vulgar language.  This is where it gets blurred.  Cussing is vulgar in this time and state, but that is relative, is it not?

     So as long as your manner is not hostile or angry you are free to say these unpopular words.  I think it is more of a problem of foolishness and wisdom.  Foolishness will not condemn you nor will wisdom save you. 

     
     Please share your opinions on Sandoval's use of the word "forget" in a christian-themed song and band, as I am eager to make up my mind morally on this issue.

     If have not heard of this band then you obviously have different tastes or you are missing out on something great.

[Harm94]

Christian music? Squanto should have let your kind die out when the May Flower landed.

[Socky]

"i am a whore"

"i am the murdered"

"the pervert sick to the core"

"i am the unclean"

etc etc.

this is hardcore christian right here folks

[snozola]

gaah,

Do you not have any opinions on the listed matter?

[LOL :D]

forget

[snozola]

Indeed...

[Bisjac]

it wouldnt be a bad song if it wasnt ruined by being all preachy -.-
its like korn before korn sold out and sucked.

lyrics do matter. in christian music there is some kind of assumption that all other music is devil worship or some stuff. but those lyrics would suck to.

i dont want ANY message in my music. i listen to music to affect my mood (or accompany it)
not to educate me

[SlayerZ99]

I like music not lyrics

[snozola]

Sooooo....

You post on a topic that is about lyrics and say "I dont like lyrics" becuase.......?

I get what you mean by not liking music with meaning.  Music should be fun not educational right?
I listen to nearly every type of music so I consider myself pretty balanced; The above band to Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass

I am just trying to find flaws in my thought process leading to my moral conclusion.  I mean, if the word is vulgar shouldn't all music be purged by the Vatican?
