\m/--> also means a sign of celebration.. seriously.. many pple think its horns.. but its actually a sign of celebration.. they think its satanic.. but its not... its the perception tht humans have.. tht makes it satanic..

if i'm not wrong \m/ is associated with goat's horn and goat is being associated with the devil in the primitive times, as no one has really seen the devil before.
 
An artist who loves to draw nude pictures of women , does that mean he is a pervert?

Then what about a musician who enjoys playing death (since metal is often associated with death) music? Does that mean he/she is a satanist?

It's called impressionism
 
Christian /Catholic rockers (musicians, beggers, road sweepers watever) should always have the "fear of God" mentality b4 everything else... does watever u do reflects on that one principle first?

b4 u start declaring, take a piss on the ground and look at your own reflection... its u ppl that give true Christianity a bad name...
*spit on your faces* :roll:
 
Read this Ronnie James Dio interview before...

On being synonymous with the devil horns, the slightly demonic hand gesture with a raised index finger and pinkie that has long been as an essential element as jeans to the hard rock fan's concert accessories:

"Of course, I invented the devil horns. Actually I saw my grandmother do it when I was a kid. She used it to ward off the evil eye. I think someone named Og invented it 50,000 years ago. But I've become synonymous with it. I'm proud of starting a trend that will last and has become a symbol."

Stryper... the band of Bumble-bees! Good stuff indeed... love the "To Hell With The Devil" album... Anyone got their new one? I wonder if it's any good.
 
Firstly, another name for horns is the shofar in hebrew ... it's used as an instrument to warn people about the enamy ... also used as a instrument to declare the glory of the King. In mordern terms, it's used to praise God or Share the Gospel. The Satanists borrowed it from us!! Horn also represents a RAM which Abraham proved his faith and loyalty to God.

Secondly, the Six sided star (hexagram) is actually the star of David. Its used to give hope to the people of Israel, symbolise God's rule over the world in 6 direction. Again ... the satanists borrowed it for thier inverted version.

Thirdly, Pentagrams represent many many things .... Vitruvian man from leonardo da vincci means symmertry of four limbs and head .... it also means five elements .... also represents stars and planetary positions. Hence it is not nessasary satanic .... depends on how you use it.

Hence not everything with such symbolism is satanic .... but the church still consists of humans ... and humans are judgemental and always Jumps whenever they see something .... hence back to music .... if you want to play christian metal, just play .... church people are not the ultimate dictator. Sometimes, they know not what they say .... if you can find a group of like minded Christians ... isn't that a church by itself?

Hillsong United. awesome kickass band. is anyone frm New Creation btw..?

i from ncc!

and yes, the thing about satanism in music is all just how humans perceive it as. im a christian, and also have a big love for death metal. i dont see anything wrong with it. music is about prefrence, nobody's asking you to go sell your soul.
 
Hmmm ... ok. I should say i attend new creation ... was in music min for a good 6 months playing for sat service .... but couldn't continue due to commitment probs.

I'm not exactly big fan of metal ... i respect the musicianship though ....
I'm always and will always be an 80s Rock fan!! Mr Big rules.

People make EVERYTHING satanic. Think about it..

someone needs a lesson in what made these things satanic. Satan itself is a christian/jewish/islamic ideology. Pagans were considered satanic by the church, Jews and Muslims as Herectics and Anti-Christ. Who's the one labelling now...
 
Yup ... i agree ... i don't like to conform to a standard just because someone else's say so. As from my previous post ... these things are labled as satanic because some Devil worshippers use it for alternate purposes, deviating from it's original intention.

25 December is also the birth of several Pagan God's from the Roman empire ... example isis if i'm not wrong. Christ wasn't born on 25th Dec, it wasn't even snowing.

Sunday is a roman's tribute to the Sun God (former official religon before Christianity). The Christian's sabbath day is supposedly Saturday. It was the Roman empire who made these alterations when introducing roman catholism to avoid the conflict between pagan and christianity during the 0200 (if i'm not wrong) by Emperor constantine .... Roman empire dissipated gradually since then ... but the pagan-Christian Tradition prevailed.

So what is satanic? Those who have labled others as satanic has no eyes to see thier own. "The way you measure others, the same way thou shalt be measured." Jesus loved the Sinners ... the only one's he rebuked were pharisees ... they judged.
 
God is good, god is awesome, hallujah....ok haha
anyway , the \m/ sign and the pentagon were of pagan ancestry...and yes emperor constantine started everything. who knows , satan just might be something else.....and MUSIC STILL MUSIC!
i am sure the guys of slayer dun slaughter plp in a basment for sacifirce?
nor are the COF, or Deicide? its all music!
