And the award for the lamest Christian song containing the word Atheist goes to.....

That.....Is really.....awful!
That's what you get when a moderate tries to shoehorn religion into mainstream secular lifestyle. It seems like he's addressing fundamentalists and extremists, though, and his "atheism" is just a rhetorical device (if that's the right word). I don't have a patent on the word "atheism," and he's sort of using it correctly.
It wasn't that bad. I liked the trumpet part (it was no Green Hornet, but it added a bit of flair to the song), and the vocal harmonies were... strange. That would be a cool song to listen to while high. The one thing I really didn't like was how the bassline followed the melody part of the time at the beginning. That and the whole song seemed too repetitive (although that's a complaint I have about nearly all contemporary Christian music).
1. I hated Contemporary Christian Music when I was a Christian.
2. I hate accoustic songs, although there are some exceptions such as "Suzanne" by Leonard Cohen.
I never really liked this type of music because it seemed like something those assholes that wear rope bracelets would listen to. Those are the worst types of Christians, man. Fuck it... Give me Pat Robertson 69-ing a Bible while singing "Jesus Loves Me" over that shit any day of the week. They're typically the moderate Christians that claim to believe the Bible, but when you confront them about biblical stuff, deny the Bible. THAT SHIT MAKES AN ARGUMENT SO MUCH LESS FUN, GODDAMN IT!
Some of them have actually had the nerve to question my musical taste. So I asked what they listened to. It was shit like this and James fucking Taylor. I hate these pseudo-hippy fucks. Jesus hippies should hang like a porn star's dick.
What're we talking about again? This song? Meh... you could probably edit the audio to make it into an actual song about atheism. That would at least make it semi-cool.
There are a few types of music that sound like every other song within their specific genre. It's this shit and country and current, main-stream rap (some asshole bragging about money he doesn't have yet). I like the joke about CCM. You can change the word "baby" from pop songs to "Jesus" and they're exactly the same. Try it with "Don't You Want Me Baby" by The Human League. $20 to the person that makes a decent version of that with the Jesus change.

This guy Wrote a book that someone told us (my friend adam and I, Co creators of Pathofreason.com) to read, They said that it would convince us "God" Was real. Well we decided to randomly check Youtube and turns out this guy is a regular Billy Joel. So anyway we debunked his book and we are trying to get him to do an interview with us.

I agree. It was just poorly played. They sound like a band that only practices once a week, maybe twice if they're lucky.
Ah...musical rants. I agree largely about CCM. They have people with talent, but they're poor artists. I think this is because they think their music has to be functional, e.g. evangelizing. It's like the difference between drawing (that's art) and an illustration (that functional).
There are Christians that make good (or at least to my tastes) music though. Sufjan Stevens and David Bazan come to mind. But they don't make Christian music, i.e. it doesn't function as a promotion of their religious beliefes.
I think you owe him $20
Good night, funny man, and thanks for the laughter.
What would people think when they hear that I'm a baby freak,
What will people do when they find that it's true? (OH! OH! OOOH!)
I don't really care if they label me a baby freak,
There ain't no disguising the truth
Look at my blog! It's awesome!
I'm also on this Twitter thing
I don't really care for xian music. They talk about their imaginary daddy in the sky too much.
That's actually where I got the Jesus/baby thing. But he didn't do Human League, so he can't collect. Also... he's not real... and Trey Parker doesn't need my money.
I didn't say Christians couldn't make good music. A lot of musicians that I like are Christians, but, yeah, it's what they do and how they do it. That just falls under being a person, though. You wouldn't pick a doctor based on religious beliefs. I know a few Christians that would, but they're dumbasses and deserve as much malpractice as possible.
"Give It to Me, Jesus" a cover of "Give It to Me, Baby" by Rick James would be pretty funny. That's all I'm sayin'.

I mean this music genre has got to be the worst out there. Especially if they are male musicians. First they only seem to only sing about Jesus or god and how much they love them. I don't know about you but nothing is worse than hearing Man on Man love songs for an Entire album. Then the more youth oriented bands are so lame that they seem to think it's still 1995
