Christians: What is your stand point on heavy metal?

Not real thrilled by most of it - though there are certain songs by Rainbow, early Rush and B.O.C.that I like very much.

Of course, music *style* is not a religious issue. There have been several Christian heavy metal bands (e.g. Stryper).

hey Great Question!!!

check this website out - exministries.com

you should check out there videos on the truth behind rock/ heavy metal. I am a daughter of the most high . I love my heavenly father. And i believe with all my heart certain genres are not for Believers ears.

2 Corinthians 6:14 (King James Version)

14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

Romans 12:2 (King James Version)

2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Yeah, each and every steel band might beat the "Jonas Sisters" with the aid of a million. Rock and pa, what style of catergory is that meant to be? yet besides the fact that, a gaggle of hannah Montana followers might pass on there and submit question interior the heavy steel catergory, so they'd "seem cool", metalhead posers.

I love it, but I only really listen to Christian metal.

It's damaging to your body, which is why mercury amalgam fillings are becoming less popular. Any new fillings I get are the white stuff.

Did I miss the point of the question?

I didn't like it before I became a Christian, and I don't like it now. I was 30 when I converted so I don't think that's going to change.

It's a hate love relationship

I've nothing against any music as such, but metal generally not positive in outlook.

I love heavy metal, just not any satanic stuff.

I listen to it a little bit.. I prefer indie though.
