"Probably because it is half-assed. Almost any kind of "cross-over" art is half-assed and it shows. True fusion musics are truly "double-assed" when successful."

"To be specific, it is contemporary xtian music that irks me so, not classical or early chants, or really even gospel. But xtian rock & pop makes my ears want to bleed!"

Garrick McElroy replied to RWeeks's discussion If the Xtians god is THE god, why is Xtian music so...god awful?
"Classic Rock, mostly. Some hardcore metal and rave thrown in, as well. Okay, so, in truth, it'd be 49% Classic Rock, 49% Rave and 49% Hardcore metal. We won't read into those numbers, but there they are."

Hi to RWeeks of Lexington and welcome to this great meeting place where religion is recognised for the superstition and public-control fraud that it is and for its inexcusable oppression of women --- and that God and gods are merely fictions inside human heads.
