I was driving along today and passed a church advertising some singing group that is to appear Sunday. I thought, "Man, I HATE religious music. Always have." It was the "always have" that caught my attention. I realized that this was an automatic response, implanted by the JW's. When I really thought about it, what I dislike about the music is the (in my opinion) false message it conveys.
So what? Do I agree with every song I listen to? Do I REALLY think she's buying a stairway to heaven? Is it REALLY a manic monday? And just how safe IS this "safety dance", anyway?
As a tearing-down-the-walls experiment, I want to expose myself to some religious music. But to be fair, I don't like much music to begin with. So the best chance I have here is Christian Rock, I think.
So, what would you recommend? I like "pop rock" stuff, particularly from the 80's. I like Alanis Morrisette. (Insert/delete n's, r's, s's, and t's as appropriate) I like Phil Collins.
I await your learned replies!
