================================================ Subject: Re: About all of this religious talk.... From: "Creed - 7M3 - Live" To: Date: Wed 9 May 2001 18:04:29 -0400 ================================================ Steve, Of course I have specified that I am not a Christian. But there are many out there that find Christian meaning from Creed. I mean their name "Creed" the mention of biblical characters and the like. I feel that they also have questions and views about their religion. So if they bring them up on a list with people of many faiths and with people that say "prove it". Then they are welcome to put out there views to the list. I guess I enjoy hearing the Christian opinions of listers. Especially since I think that Sevendust's music stinks, but heard that they were first played on a Christian music station. With the band that Nora passed on that Scott was willing to take part in the song looking Christian with thier songs. I'm curious. I'd hate to see you go. Since you have good things to say. But let us find out why Creed is considered Christian by some people. I'm more curious to what Christians find from the music on HC. As well as MOP.
