Two seperate topics, but no reason to waste thread space.
First music.
My father, before he died, had a lady he spent the last 10 years of his life with and she claimed a few things that were so absurd as to be laughable. Most of them I've managed to figure out where they came from, but this one I'm at a loss.
"Any music that has any kind of percussion instruments in it was commissioned by Satan" or at least that's as close to her statement as I can come. Guess I should ask does anyone believe that. She said it's in the good book, but I'm at a loss as to where it might be. Which of course leads me to conclude she was full of something funny smelling.
Wait, wait that's not all. Second question regarding music is this. I like hard, fast music such as Demon Hunter. Now I can read and listen to the lyrics and realize the message they are conveying but I don't see a lot of outright mentions of God and Christ. Is that a concern? The fact that they allude to Christian things, but don't often come right out and say them?
And now poems.
Anyone write their own poems or music. Not remakes of other peoples work but solely your own?

), I can't help shuddering for them when I think of Christ's warning in 
I'm not saying that they're not "Christian" -- I'm just saying what Jesus said about the matter ... again, 'nuff said ... He's the authority on the matter, not me.

And hey, if we can't hear you live, maybe we can at least hear you recorded.
