Which Christian band is the most Atheist-friendly?

OK,OK!!

Bride is the only correct answer.

Believer

All of them; they show them a better way.

[K. Bachman, J. Daub, D. Baddorf, H. Kraft]

What good would result for a man
By gaining the world but losing his soul?
Love not the world
Or the wrath of the Father you will behold

Do not conform to evil
The desires conceived in ignorance
Choosing to befriend the world
Brings hatred from God as a consequence
DEATH, SIN
Extraction From Mortality
WORDLY REJECTION
Deliverance from agony

Men would love you as their own
If you belonged to this earthly realm
Mankind hates the ones
Who do not conform but rebel

Everyone born of God
Will not face eternal decay
Death they will overcome
The ways of man will pass away

Be transformed by renewing
The intentions and thoughts of your mind
Your life must be hidden in Christ
Leaving the corrupted flesh behind

[Exodus 23:2; Romans 8:29, 12:2; 1 John 2:15, 5:4;]

[Colossians 3:23; 1 Corinthians 7:31; Hebrews 11:25]

How about As I Lay Dying? 

Also murder friendly…

ATTEMPTED murder-friendly.  There's a difference!  

On topic, a few friends from church and I went to see Fit For A King and The Devil Wears Prada a couple nights ago.  (Hardcore Christian was there too!)  Having never listened to them before nor knew anything about 'em other than that they are bigger names in the Christian metalcore scene, I was saddened to hear TDWP's foul language throughout the show.  I know four-letter words from Christians is cool and edgy and all , but they did say GD once or twice.  If they still consider themselves a Christian band, I sure didn't see any indicators.

Fit For A King on the other hand was completely clean and while there was no gospel message or anything, I did pick up some pretty explicit Christian themes in their lyrics.  So at least there's that.

I thought TDWP stopped referring to themselves as a Christian band a while ago, but I could be wrong.

I was chatting with HC after their set for a bit and it sounded like that's the case.  They may have one or two folks in the band who consider themselves Christian but the band as a whole isn't anymore.

I was surprised by how poppy they sounded too.  Sans maybe a few of their songs, if you took away the aggressive vocals and heavily distorted guitars, they'd be a pop band.  They put on a decent show and had a lot of energy and intensity though.

Just out of curiosity what is the objective answer to the Deicide question? (I guess which is the least Satanic?... Don't really know if they have any that aren't)

Do Deicide have any instrumentals? That would probably be the answer lol

Off the top of my head, would say "carnage in the temple of the damned" because it is more about The Jim Jones town cult. 

if you don't know what that is, basically in the 70's, after cult members attacked a Congressman who was investigating the cult, Jim Jones, the leader, enacted a suicide plan in Jonestown. it was a punch bowl laced with cyanide he had members hand out to children and adult members alike, killing more than 900 people, after which he shot himself. So essentially the song is about mind control through religion taken to extremes, theme wise. And it's very angry! lolz. That's where we get the expression: "who drunk the cool aid".


That or probably dead by dawn which is based on Evil Dead horror movie. And is Pure awesome!

Slim pickin's tho, Benton really doesn't like JC or the man upstairs lolz. Though these days he does for the money and probably laughs at himself more than anyone.

Kind of find it funny that Deicide and the Christian band Showbread both have songs titled that, both about Evil Dead. Wonder if either band has heard the other song (also wonder if Sam Raimi or Bruce Campbell ever heard either song).

Glen Benton has literally branded an inverted cross on his forehead, multiple times. Dude is unhinged, and his whole personality is to hate a being he claims to not believe in the existence of

Whatever you’re doing, it’s probably more worthwhile than participating in that childish mudslinging fest lol

Raimi and Campbell will have to get together and decide which band's song is canon.

Wow I just watched a sync up of parts taken from evil dead with the movie and its incredibly well done. Never seen anyone do a job like that with a video song mix. I won't post it here out of respect but fro anyone that wants to see it's really well done. just type in deicide- dead by dawn and the video is secon down on the list. SO well done!

Absolutely. I used to have an instagram account where I talked about both Christianity and conservative politics. By far the angriest interactions I got were from atheists expressing their hatred for God and Christians in general. Much more so than from people disagreeing with my politics. And that’s saying something. Ironically, the second most angry group after atheists was vegans lol (although I admit my replies to them about how much I loved bacon weren’t helping at all)

Lol... trolling delusional people doesn't hurt much imo

Btw, did you delete the account, or just stop using it? Because I'm interested in seeing some of it.

I just read that the reason he stopped re-branding it is because his mom asked him not too
