Is it wrong to listen to Marilyn Manson if you're a christian?

Everyone in this thread should read his book: The Long, Hard Road out of Hell. Very Entertaining. Expels alot of myths...
Marilyn Manson is a modern Satanist. There are many rumors floating around, but he has stated this. He also knew Anton LeVay personally, and thought of him as somewhat of a father figure. He never had ribs removed or raped anyone on stage. He dosent worship the devil (Yeah, Modern Satanists define satan as a concept, not a being). So this is my take on Christianity and Manson.. Of course Christians can listen to him. Anyone can listen to him....it's in any human's power. However I find it quite silly that a christian would find meaning in his lyrics, look up to him, or call themselves a "fan." It would be quite contradictory. I've heard christians say "I like his music, but I don't like him/his lyrics." It seems that if you're a christian, that statement would make most sense. If that's the case? Great...I think his music is great, but if you're a christian, I don't know how wide the definition of "fan" can get... I'm an athiest, and no one's stopping me from listening to that cheery Christian worship music. But, for the most part, I'm not going to listen to something I don't agree with. Would it be wrong of me to listen? It wouldnt be WRONG, but to me it would seem contradictory...and silly. I would only imagine that a christian would feel this way listening to Manson... It's only music, but however, if you take to heart the meaning, that's something more.. |
