Apr 06, 05 02:44 am — apparently it is now trendy to love jesus, especially if you are in a band that is no where near christian morallity. First it was that guitarist guy "head" from Korn, and now mtv news is reporting Maynard James Keenan of tool, has found jesus. My guess is Marylin Manson declares he's a jew within a month.
Yeah, religion fucks up all sorts of things.
This has been happening up and down the timeline. It's nothing new.
As if it has anything to do with their level of musicianship, if they sucked before they found god they'll suck after.
Correct. Bob Dylan has gone from Jewish to Jew for Jesus to born again Jew to who knows what so many times I have lost count and no longer care to know.
Not Maynard!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!1
say it ain't so 
I don't believe it. 
well it all happened around april fools day, reported on the tool site, so the author of the article suggests it might be a prank by maynard, but toolshed, a fan site reports a letter directly from him saying he has so its weird.
OMG Ozzy is Catholic!
Please tell me your joking Bro.
I think Dan Spitz of Anthrax started this trend.
Jews don't believe in Jesus Christ as Savior......Marilyn Mansion didn't find Jesus at all........You can't really judge someone just by their acts. They can do the worst things, but still have a relationship with Christ.
yea, like JUDAS PRIEST they loved jesus and still were BREAKIN THE LAW,, BREAKIN THE LAW!!!
i understand that, i was mking a statement about the religious trend. Not just Chritstianity though, what about al those little red yarn bracelets you see these days, the kabalah strings. Maybe i should have said "jew for jesus".
i'm pretty sure you can judge some one by their actions, if not by that then what? opinions? It's done every day, the judicial system, the crucifixtion of christ etc etc. christians are judged by their acts when they die and face st. peter.
i don't think he sits with the list of actions and goes over it with the newly deceased and goes......"let's see here....Robert Yates...lets see you were a brutal serial killer....but you had a relationship with christ....come on in buddy, i can't judge you for your actions"
Must be that little clause where as long as you repent you can enter heaven. Isn't it fantastic to know that some one can lead a life of debauchery and simply say im sorry and call it even.
The problem is Christians always want to belive that as long as you have a relationship with christ everything is a-ok, and you can't be held accountable for your actions. Bull-Mother-Fucking -Shit. It's lovely to live in fairytale land and allow all kinds of horrible things to happen because it so much easier to responsibility in some other worldly being. thats why the priests who like to take special liberties with their flock and play a rousing game of "hide the steeple" get away with it. My statement was refering to it as a trend, because thats what it is when you can some how switch and be forgiven. The morality means nothing when you can turn it on like a switch.
Christianity, isnt about the fire and brimstone anymore, screw the consequences when "jesus is your homeboy".
yeah all of them except for Rob halford because (*puts on best southern relgious nutcase accent*) "God don't love no faggots"
besides who wants to hear the rock music in heaven? it's gotta suck, lets look at the headliners....Creed, P.O.D., maybe hendrix probably some other mediocre bands
hell...now hells got
AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Ozzy with sabbath, Kurt Cobain, You know jimy page will be there, the list goes on, maybe even layne staley
dear GOD AND SATAN!! even though im not a beliver... if there is some place that the saints go Layne is there. and i will not see him there. the man was and still is my all time idol..
but YES, hells going to be fun.. thats for sure.. im not looking down on it.. if there is one. shit. sounds like a blast.. but for layne. hes going somewhere special.. like the lost soles that healed others with his voice and message.
all abou the " jesus cant pull the trigger theory" god i love that .. lol
dont you love the satanist that dont belive in God.. WOW i laugh everytime..
SATAN WAS A CREATION OF CHRISTIANITY!!!!
"Adopting a woman's name and wearing make-up. How original."
Alice Cooper, when asked about Marilyn Manson.
Best. Quote. Ever.
no fucking way.
at least half of his songs expose religion for what it is anyway (farcical)
and even numbers rule.
