From: "Lee Reed" To: Date: Thu 24 Jan 2002 02:07:44 -0500 ================================================ kudos, lisa, a very clear, concise explanation...and that is what i find so cool...creed has no agenda to convert anyone to anything...their lyrics are written in a manner to make you explore for yourself...unlike true christian bands, who may play great music, but their whole reason for being is to 'bring people to god'...my own quotation marks, that's how i see them...POD possibly being an exception to the rule...they have 'crossed over' in a way never really seen before...
