Rock Music is of the Devil

Some people might find this a good read:

Wellington Church Doesn't Want to Rock

Now before anyone starts to think I am going to go on some rambling tirade about how great Kiss are, or some anti-church rant because they don't like rock music, I will make 2 points:

1 - at this stage, it seems there is only 1 church protesting the concert.

2 - the whole thing is so laughable I can't take it seriously.

Not even the Catholic Priest they spoke seems to be taking the situation seriously, and quite frankly what he had to say was the best response.

What I will say is this, though; if this woman believes that these people are feeling "hurt", then why isn't her church trying to do something to help them? She seems to be thinking like a preacher from the 1950's, where anyone who plays a guitar and moves around on stage must be a tool of evil spirits. Kiss are from satanic, and Lordi are just plain hilarious. And as a friend of mine pointed out, there are many Christian bands who play similar music - would they be considered evil too?

I'm quite interested as to how anyone from other Pentecostal churches feel about this - anyone reading this wish to offer their thoughts? In fact, I'm quite curious to see if any other church in Wellington gets behind this one.
