I don't like alot of the music but I have alot of respect for them. People called them terrorists for burning churches when they were freedom fighters. Christianity was forced upon the Nordic's(am I right with what I call them?) so they became Satanists to oppose it.
Religion is the chain of oppression.
Christianity was *forced* on a few cultures through out history.
I dissagree on the freedom fighter comment for a simple reason.This act makes them as bad as anything the Christians were doing.
It is not *Religion* that is to blame,but rather fanatacism in strong and emotional beliefs.
Couple this with a strong,charasmatic personallity with the ability to bend the will of weaker individuals,often leads to a few things.
The leader becomes wealthy,the followers become brainwashed and poor,and in a few instances, kill themselves.
Do not mistake me,there are many many selfless Christians interested only in doing good works and serving God.
What disturbs me is simply that a lot of Christians do not BOTHER to study the Bible,and simply listen in rapt attention to whatever is handed down from the pulpit.
They have then put thier faith in the preacher,and not God,and should learn to study for themselves.Not take a certain doctrine as the *truth*,just because Reverand so and so SAYS it is.
Just my thoughts on it.
On a side note Metal LOL I think you are a pyromaniac!
