Religion DOES cause war because the people ("leaders") misinterperet or misconstrue what the religion teaches to mean whatever they want it to mean and that's where the problem is. The same can be said with politics... |
no, you have already proved yourself wrong. its not the religion, its a persons EGO. when you think of yourself high and mighty, its power and domination that you wish to maintain. Religion has and will always, so long as humanity survives, be used as a mask to justify personal ambition. If you put a child in front of you and claim that he or she wants a certain person dead, is the child the one to blame for death of that person?

I get really annoyed when chistians search in everything something that has to do with Jesus or almighty God or Allah or whatever ... |
why do you hate that? what causes you to hate us? The reason christians see God and the teachings of Jesus everywhere is because they ARE everywhere. what jesus taught applies to everyone and are eternal truths. God is not some guy sitting on clouds who decides who dies and who doesnt. God is whats was, what is, and what will be. Through God we are all connected.

This music was NOT made to praise god.
Perhaps it was made for people to take lots of drugs and dance around like bunnies on crack? Or maybe its made to touch people? Or its even possible its made so premarital sex could be better?
I dont in know, but I'll tell you one thing.
IT WASNT MADE AS AN EXTENSION OF THE BIBLE IN ANY WAY AND WASN'T MADE TO PRAISE GOD.
when a song might have vocals that go something like "your my angel" it doesn't mean it literally, it is a metaphor, chump. |
how narrow your view of music is. This concept that you believe is also what many christian fundamentalists believe, which is sad. their children, if they chose the same path, will grow never knowing the wonders of music and dancing. What one person makes for a junkie, can also be used as a tool to praise God. EDM is a great form of music because it can transcend racial, linguistic, and cultural barriers and create happiness to anyone who wishes to listen. How is that I, a christian, can listen to the same music you listen to and enjoy it just as much, if not maybe more? Point being, whatever makes me happy i can use to praise God, even if you use it differently.
also just to keep this music discussion orientated, im listening to Benjamin Bates - Lost in the Way You Close Your Eyes:D |

What concept I believe in? That Dance music was made for DANCING and not prayer?? I don't think thats too bold a statement.
Hey I don't do Drugs, but a load of people in the EDM scene sure do. And the way the scene has been going, this music is not being used to praise god, its being used to praise RECORD SALES! How many Producers Cry about monetary issues?
Either way, my view for music isn't narrow, I was trained when I was young for classical, I produced a bit in my younger years, play guitar drums piano AND DJ, I listen to just about anything that sounds good with real soul (ie. not made just to sell records). Maybe you got offended cause your too thick to realize the sarcasm I add to my posts? Either way, Christian music is not my cup of tea, so i'll leave you to creed or whatever it is you listen to. |

Just so we're on the same page...my whole point is that unless you follow what Christ says and live as HE lived...you aint a CHRISTIAN...these "contacts" were not living as Christ nor were they in any way representative of real Christianity! This is what gives my faith a bad rep... people who act "in the name of" something they don't actually know or understand...people who say they are Christian but don't know ONE verse from the bible or even have a relationship with Christ.

They was doing this in the name of the christians and for jesus..
If you payed at least a little attention at school you would know that the christians are one of the worst criminals in history and without religion many people wouldn´t have been killed.
Anyway to each his own.. |

Prayer can be one in the same with dancing IMO.

Like i said, what i use music for may be different for what others use it for. either way its serves some type of purpose. thats the point im trying to convey.

you misunderstood me. i think your views are narrow because you think that music (particularly EDM) only has one purpose. I say it can have many purposes. ill leave it at that.

you were being sarcastic? OK then. we are both guilty of misunderstanding.
