    I agree 99.99% (there's a few select songs that are good, but that's it)

    Christian rock is like taking a massive **** in an oven, cooking it on 500 for two days, scraping out the remainder and snorting it. Wait, I think I'd rather do that than listen to Christian rock.

    I find Religious, particularly Christian, music disturbing.

    I meant today's religious music not including Christian Rock.

    The older music I don't have a problem with at all.

    Christian rock is plain stupid.

    Yeah I think it's try-hard rubbish generally. Someone told me Evanescence was a Christian band? If this is true then that great band would be an exception to the rule.

    Thanks for the link! It says:

    Originally promoted in Christian stores, the band eventually made it clear they did not want to be considered as part of the Christian rock genre. Wind-up Records chairman Alan Meltzer issued a press release in April 2003 asking for the band's music to be removed from Christian retail outlets.[40]

    During a 2003 interview with Entertainment Weekly, Ben Moody stated, "We're actually high on the Christian charts, and I'm like, What the f--k are we even doing there?"[41] This seemed to go against earlier sentiments by Moody that "We hope to express in our music that Christianity is not a rigid list of rules to follow..." and also "The message we as a band want to convey more than anything is simple—God is Love."[42] This has led to criticism of the band within the Christian community, even more so given that the band themselves approved of the plan to distribute Fallen to the Christian market.[43] Terry Hemmings, CEO of Christian music distributor Provident, expressed puzzlement at the band's about-face, saying "They clearly understood the album would be sold in these [Christian music] channels."[44] In the wake of the controversy, "Bring Me To Life" was shed by many Christian radio stations; the song was Top 5 on Radio & Records' Christian Rock Top 30 one week, and completely gone the next. Ex-vocalist and keyboardist David Hodges eventually left the band over the controversy, with other members stating that he had been pulling them in more of a Christian direction than Lee and Moody were comfortable with.

    When asked by Billboard in 2006 if Evanescence was a "Christian band," Amy Lee responded, "Can we please skip the Christian thing? I'm so over it. It's the lamest thing. I fought that from the beginning; I never wanted to be associated with it. It was a Ben thing. It's over."[45]
    So I guess not.
