To the Christian death and Christian black metal scenes, I am pleased there are those who follow Christ who enjoy harsh and brutal metal Lyrical themes about killing demons and eviscerating devils is dangerous and petty Pure hate is pure poison Saying words of violence just to offend the other side helps nothing Christian metal should be spiritually wholesome entertainment for those who accept or tolerate Christian values Dear Gracious Lord, I pray that we can all set aside words of violence toward hate and intolerance and replace those with words of love and acceptance We come together through You oh God, not through the spirit of antithesis
