Is Christian music supposed to fuel anger?? I didn't think so, but it did that to me today. I was angry to begin with - long story - but Alter Ego has the boring story on his blog. I choose to let him blog about the mundane, boring events of the day because it allows me to be more creative and mildly entertaining for my "fans" without making them have to suffer through blogs that explain in excruciating detail what I did today.

So anyway...I was fuming angry at my douchebag of a boss. Actually both of them. They're so freakin' stupid it makes me wonder how they run a business. Sometimes I think they have mild retardation..but now I'm just going off on a tangent. So when I'm angry, I listen to angry music (Rob Zombie, Rage Against the Machine, Bette Midler, etc.) - pretty much as loud as I can. I turn the radio up until just before the blood begins to drip from my ear canal and my larger-than-average testicles angrily vibrate against the cushioned chair.

So I was flipping through the stations looking for some angry music. I turned it on what I thought was 89X because whatever was playing sounded like they were just pissed off at the world and themselves. The screeching guitars, the banging drums...everything. Until the lyrics of the chorus popped in. Amongst the anger and hate-filled guitar riffs, I hear, "Holy Holy Holy / You are Holy..." And I'm like, "WTF?? Angry Christian music??"

This made me even angrier. Christian music isn't supposed to make you mad, is it?? Shouldn't there be a distinction between the "devil's music" and "God music"?? God music is supposed to be harps and pianos and cheesy...or at least, that's what I thought. Come on, God people. I mean...what was the name of this group - Heaven's Hellcats?? Bitter Baptists?? The Wrathful Worshippers??

I didn't get it. How can you be angry if you're singing about the baby Jesus. I mean, if you're singing about baby Lucifer, ok - be a little perturbed. But the baby Jesus?? If you're angry about the baby Jesus, you got some problems because the baby Jesus never did anything to you. How many people think, "Ohhhh that baby Jesus...he just makes me sooooo angry!!"?? Even if you don't believe in the baby Jesus, how can you be angry?? He symbolizes love and peace and whatnot. If you got something bad to say about the baby Jesus, stay away from me because I won't tolerate any baby Jesus bashing.
