I have no problem with religious music, music has been a large part of ritual in religion for hundreds if not thousands of years, in fact lots of what I listen to is meditation music which has a strong religious albeit non-theistic element to it.
However it annoys me when people try and bring religion into mainstream/modern or recreational music like Christian rap, rock, electro-pop etc because they are supposed to be light hearted and fun so should not have the heavy subject of religion into it.
You see so many Christians here posting about how much they love their so called God and saviour which is seen as OK and when an Atheist dares to express there view through music in reply it's not.

yeah we should totally limit the creative aspects of music and futurama is right all mainstream music must be light hearted and fun and we know you cant have that with religious undertones!!!

atheism focuses on the aspects of science. see, y'all don't talk about that, though. you use atheism as an excuse to tell people there is no god. see, christians don't do that (at least on this site for all intended purposes). they express their love and their vision. if your vision is to tell other people they are wrong and foolish, you should probably rethink your life lol

I'm sorry Emancipation but saying that there is a God through religious music is the same as saying there is no God because the religious people are saying that Atheism is wrong in the same way Atheism says Religion is wrong when it says that there is no God.

| The only time I've seen a religious kid on these forums is someone who wrote a song about how God is amazing, I think it was called God is amazing. |

Well Johnb a regular on this forum at least did have that biblical spam in his profile saying that if you deny Jesus he and God will prevent you from entering Heaven (and thus sending you to hell).
And also conversations with him here show that he does not think much of Atheists.

| I think that God and Jesus are only there so people feel that they are actually special and that they are loved thinking that believing in him means that there is some hope, but the only hope they could find is in themselves, not in a God. This is why I liked Buddhism. |

I shouldn't really say he's a troll but he jokes around a lot.

@violetcries I agree with that too as I am a Buddhist, we also don't teach that people get an eternity in hell for having different beliefs either.
