    Nick Fuentes interview.

    I watched The first few minutes and the thing that struck me was how much he makes himself, and his intentional flamboyant controversial nature the center of the discussion. I loathe and detest the idea of the cult of personality, whether it's Justin Bieber, Jack Hyles, or Nick Fuentes...

    Pastor's salaries/lifestyle.

    While I agree with you that a person's finances ought to be considered in the light of stewardship, it's a hard sell for me to go to the other extreme of saying don't drive a Mercedes or wear an expensive suit. To make an analogy that I'm sure that you understand, it's the step over the line...

    That pretty well covers it, so in my opinion, one word.... apathy.

    Skillet: O Come, O Come Emmanuel

    Yes, of course subjectivity is at the core of what I meant. But it's not just the subjectivity of the hearer, it's also the subjectivity of the composer and composition. If his stated purpose is to clearly get the gospel out, I hardly see how such a muddled mess qualifies as a legitimate, or...

    Well, that's not how I understood your previous posts, but it appears that we don't disagree all that much then.

    Just some comments from fans on the inaudible nature of metal lyrics... And it's commonly understood that the inability to understand metal music and particularly its vocals, is the norm because the genre employs unintelligible harsh vocals, low-pitched registers, and distorted sounds. There...

    To some extent, both of you and huk. But in this instance, I'm stating that you are overreaching, claiming that the Bible requires qualifications that simply aren't there as an absolute.

    Sure, but purportedly their audience is people that, generally speaking, are not.

    Skillet: O Come, O Come Emmanuel

    If I like a song in its original version I rarely like a remake nearly as well as that original. That is one song that breaks that tendency for me.

    All that is fine and good, but in the final analysis it's clear that absolutely demanding marriage as a requirement for a pastor is extra-Biblical.

    So, would your church give formula for the baby?

    Skillet: O Come, O Come Emmanuel

    You bring up a good point. Skillet disavows the idea of them being a Christian band, particularly the notion of leading worship. They are professed entertainers, and use their platform to get the message of Christ out to people that otherwise would not give the Christian gospel a first look. I...

    I would advise them to think about getting some ear muffs so they preserve their hearing. Old age comes quick enough without inviting it in via abuse.

    I would say that the distorted "music" and cacophony of screeching certainly is muddled at best. I couldn't understand a word they said after the loudness began in the middle of the song. How is that not the very definition of unclear?

    Pastor's salaries/lifestyle.

    Not sure that I would exactly word it that way, but in essence, I agree that a pastor shouldn't be overly preoccupied with money. Having said that, I got the impression from your previous response that you were against the organized assembly of fellow believers on the basis of monies that were...
