So my grandparents were just visiting.

My grandfather has to get surgery but found out there was an emergency so the surgery will be delayed a few weeks.

When they come here they stay in my room.

Last time they were here they complained that the posters in my room scared them (Radiohead and U2 posters primarily).

 

Well today they said

"I don't know if we can stay in your room with all that rock music. Are those all rock cassettes?"

"Yeah mostly"

"What are you listening to that type of music for?"

"I like it."

"You like it? That stuff is satanic."

"No it isn't, just because they use electric instruments doesn't make it satanic"

"Do you think a Christian should be listening to that type of music? Many of the lyrics...."

And Briggins walks away and didn't catch the end of their "logic".

 

Oh jeez.

hahahahaha

 

your grandparents are KuTe!

:lol:

 

like I said to you on msn you should play them some songs backwards like Stairway to Heaven

Grandparents are strange like that

and I'll never forget the time my little brother starting talking about Satan to this priest and my gran was trying to shut him up :laugh3:

Yeah my grandfather is a pastor.

 

They're probably worried about my salvation now.

you need savin', boy

You'll Go To Hell For... all the rock music you're listening toooooooooooooooo

 

 

(sung to "Nude" for those that didn't get the reference :P)

you need savin', boy

 

ah yeah :P

 

They're just so old school.

The pastor at my old church did sermons on U2, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Bruce Cockburn (a Canadian artist) and apparently a few weeks ago referenced City With No Children by Arcade Fire.

 

The pastor at my new church is also a mega U2 fan, and likes David Matthews Band, and a tonne of other music. And he plays the drums, and usually worship practices turn into Beatles jam sessions.

If they think U2 and Radiohead are satanic, I wonder what they would think of slipknot :thinking:

ah yeah :P

Oh jeez.

Isn't there something called Christian Rock? They can't possibly think that sounds satanic, even though it's rock-y. Or will they say, "oh, that's different, just all the other stuff is satanic."

I know how you feel.. I live around a bunch of religious nutcases. :blank:

^haha awesome.

Your church sounds legitimately enjoyable to go to. I'm sort of jealous.

 

At mine we just got this new Pastor with a weird stache and he rides a motorcycle. Not really sure what I think of him...

Also the only music we really get is an organist and a choir of elderly people singing classic hymns together.

Ohhh, this gives me the perfect chance to rant about how much my parents hate my music...again. :tongue:

 

No, seriously. My mom refused to buy me Muse's "Absolution" DVD because it made a reference to atheists. :blank:

:laugh3::laugh3:

 

Well, I suppose it's so long as you know that you're not listening to satanic music.

I think my parents would buy that for me because it has that reference. :awesome:
