In the gym and was idly watching one of the tellies between sets.

Saw a metal band on there, then they mentioned on the captions they are a Christian band, and though I am sure they are good, it just made me grimace, Heavy metal isn’t really me a to be all godly.

Got me thinking, other things you think “cool” and another word spoils it.

Beer - zero alcohol

Restaurant - Vegan

Sure there are loads of others

From childhood

Toys - wooden

Video game - educational

Any more,

Other than, PH post - J4CKO

Makes no difference to me, if the music is good I’ll listen to it. I was going to suggest Kings X as being an example of a great rock / metal band with Christian tones, but I just learnt via Wikipedia that they distanced themselves from Christianity.

Toys - Wooden

I bloody love wooden toys!

Skiing - dry slope

Mx5 - mk2, mk3, mk4

Back to the future - part II or part III

Coffee - decaf

With the music, I think being told about the Christian bit prejudices you a bit, like being told food is vegetarian as if it’s good the lack of meat doesn’t matter.

Irony is, whilst I was seeing that on the screen at the gym and pulling a face at Christian music, I couldn’t hear it and on at the time was a track called “Jesus built my Hotrod” by a band called Ministry which sounds like it could be Christian.

As I mentioned, wooden toys was a childhood thing from the late seventies/early eighties, as back then I wanted Lego, preferably Technic, or electronic things, anything wooden was not welcome, but can appreciate them now, a wooden toy was second only to a squashy present back then !

One of my all time favourite tracks...

'No man with a good car needs to be justified'

(Ministry as a Christian band? That made me laugh quite a lot)




Back to the thread:

Formula 1 - Liberty Media

Yeah, one of mine as well, errors as they started out as a synth pop band.

Just seemed sort of appropriate as it’s got Jesus in the title and Ministry is sometimes used in a religious context.
