I'd like to ask politely that you move that discussion to another thread; this thread is specifically about Christian rock.

OK, now that's just rude, COLA. You're judging without even listening first.

Replace "Nigga" with "Jesus" and its all the same.

Good thing Mac Dre didn't go with Christian rap, then. He's the only rapper I ever liked, and it would just ruin him for me.

Ah, I could hear what it would sound like now...
"This is how we do it in the Bay, Jesus"

You know, I'm tired of people accusing everyone for strawman arguments, even though its the usual form of argument the accuser is using.

COLA, you're judging Christian rap and making assumptions about it without having even heard any. That's pretty much strawman right there.

Ok, that emoticon is always annoying to me, and it's never aimed in my direction. (Surprisingly.)

KJ-52 is pretty good when he's not rapping directly about Jesus.

Yes. Instead of accusing someone for a form of arguing, why not just argue?

You pick the worst places to use that emoticon. You're still talking about a form of Christian music.

Only Ian...

It was still on topic. You were talking about a form of Christian music.

Don't use that emoticon, phrase, etc, unless it's absolutely necessary. You use it way too much.

This is stupid. You're basically saying that this thread is about ONLY Christian Rock, and Christian Rap must be made into a separate thread, even though they are both the same discussion.

No, Rusty steered the topic off, as did Myrrh and Mandy. I'm just saying that you're unfairly judging Christian rap and making all these assumptions about it without even heard it before.

Yes, because it had been a page since I posted.

Sigh.

So then I can't have an opinion on the subject?

and making assumptions
You're assuming I've never heard Christian Rap or Christian Rock.

My friend Jessica always gave me rides home from school last year, before she moved. She always turned on the Christian station. Since rap is what the "kids" are listening to, they played only Christian Rap to try and get the message to kids who like rap (Its essentially saying "Hey kids, do you love Pokemon? Then you'll Love Digimon!"). Everyday, it all sounded the same: "Friend in Jesus, y'all, big heart, thansk and love for the sould I got from him" and all that. Stop assuming.

You know there needs to be word that describes someone accusing someone of a specific type of argument.

Also, stop arguing about arguing, because telling people to stop using a form of argument is pretty much telling them become neutral.

It was a set up for a joke that would have ended with the words "Niggas" and "Souls."

Is it me?

It is, isn't it?




Also everyone just chill out. This thread is about Christian Rock and related discussions. My interpretation is that includes other Christian music, if you want to discuss it. But please, discuss things.

Uh, guys, cut it out. The thread's title says "Christian Rock," not "Christian Rap" or "lol no ur teh 1 using teh strawman".

EDIT: Yeah, it makes sense to allow discussion about Christian Rap here, but please, let's have some semblance of actual discussion and not just "Christian rap = modern Christian music = automatic fail", all right?

I've heard a few bits of Christian Rap and Rock. It's not automatic fail, but it's fail all the same. Just not automatically. There may be SOME decent Christian rockers/rappers but I haven't heard them. They're usually just what COLA said...

Whether or not that may be strawman, it's still pretty much the truth...

Actually, we're kinda debating over whether or not it's a rule 6 violation. Rest assured that it's been noticed. :P

I'd say it definitely is.
