"Why Metalheads are happier people"

Cool video:

I dunno, I've met a lot of metal fans that are either devil worshipers or they are strung out on drugs and booze and weren't happy people at all

They always be doing the dio inspired satanic hand salute that looks similar to the University of Texas hook  'en horns hand sign

It's really sad when people who claim to be Christians doing this claiming to not know it's a hand salute of honor and respect for satan!  Sad!

Impossible. Dio never went to the University of Texas.

No, but he sure flashed the devil worship hand sign a lot.

He was very fond of the rulers of darkness

Never heard of them. What style do they play?

That sign was around before Dio and he said it was a sign he stole from his Italian Grandma to ward off evil or give the evil eye.

Nazgul inspired metal.

Exactly, it's an occult practice that's supposed to control demons

In other words, it's satanic and it's done in honor and respect for satan.

devil worship music

Math metal (get it? Rulers?)

You forgot spiritual wickedness in high places

Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Apparently some enjoy playing with darkness because they are of their father... the devil

Krich wrote:they are of their father... the devil

That's what my friend's mom always said to him. He acted out a lot after his parents divorced. 

He never listened to Dio or attended UT, though.

Occult practice? Dude, you're really reaching here, lots of religions have signs to ward off evil, even Judaism. I'm not saying it's good, probably pagan to a degree but Dio seemed to be doing it more in jest than anything. Let's not give Satan too much credit.

You seem to have difficulties understanding the difference between good and evil.

dio was a servant of his father the devil and he's burning in hell now because he rejecvted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and refused to serve the Lord inb favor of being a servant of the devil.

Jesus said those that are not with Him... are against Him.  You might want to re-think advocating for dio and occult practices as this is an open door for the enemy since this is agreement with the enemy.

Unless you buy clothes made by Christians, you are having a party with the devil and Dio.

Steve Taylor: “Guilty by Association”

So you need a new car?
Let your fingers take a walk
Through the business guide
For the "born again" flock
You'll be keeping all your money
In the kingdom now
And you'll only drink milk
From a Christian cow
Don't you go casting your bread
To keep the heathen well-fed
Line Christian pockets instead
Avoid temptation
Guilty by association
Turn the radio on
To a down-home drawl
Hear a brylcream prophet
With a message for y'all
"Well I have found a new utensil
In the devil's toolbox
And the heads are gonna roll
If Jesus rocks"
"It's a worldly design!
God's music should be divine!
Try buying records like mine
Avoid temptation"
Guilty by association
So you say it's of the devil
And we've got no choice
'Cause you heard a revelation
From the "still small voice?"
If the Bible doesn't back it
Then it seems quite clear
Perhaps it was the devil
Who whispered in your ear
It's a Telethon Tuesday
For "The Gospel Club"
"Send your money in now
Or they're gonna pull the plug!"
Just remember this fact
When they plead and beg
When the chicken squawks loudest
Gonna lay a big egg
You could be smelling a crook
You should be checking The Book
But you'd rather listen than look
The implication
Guilty by association

Where did I advocate for occult practices? Dio wasn't a believer but he didn't practice the occult. Shoot, Kerry Livgren had him on an album, is he also part of the occult?

Saluting satan is an occult practice, and Kerry Livgren ignored God's Word by being unequally yoked with an unbeliever by having a devil worshiper on his album.

But then again Kerry Livgren is a calvinist following reformed theology so hanging with devil worshipers is not surprising at all.

as one who leans Reformed Baptist, that's really funny.

And Jesus said wide is the path that leads to destruction and many go in to erternity that way (they go to hell)

But narrow is the path that leads to life and few be that find it... so according to Jesus, the majority of people born will end up in hell, but only a few find the narrow path that leads to Heaven.

You might want to take the exit ramp from that wide path you are on and get back on the narrow path so you don't spend eternity in the lake of fire.

One thing is for sure... the true Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ does not led God's children to play occult games with peace signs,  and hand salutes to satan!  Enjoy!

Romans 8:14
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

No weapon formed against me can prosper... try as you might, you cannot "damn" me.  Those that have tried have seen what they sow come right back on them.

The Lord delivered me out of darkness long ago, so abiding IN CHRIST is the place to be for me!  Of course I can only speak for myself as I can only make decisions for my life.  Others are responsible for their lives.

Those in darkness often find it odd when others don't get down in the muck and the mire with them. Enjoy!

You act like no one's actually studied and thought through any of this, it's all brainwashing. That's a special kind of elitist. You do realize every philosophy/belief system takes a certain amount of faith?

Ok, I think we can lock this thread now.
