Christian Rock at School

Quote
When Dunkerton High School in Iowa invited a Christian rock band called Junkyard Prophet to perform during a school assembly this past Thursday, they never expected to get a hate filled sermon as part of the deal. But that’s exactly what happened.

According to the Lacrosse Tribune, the message was supposed “to be about bullying and making good choices,” such as being non-violent and against drugs and alcohol. “Instead, junior and senior high students at Dunkerton High School and faculty members said they were assaulted by the group’s extreme opinions on homosexuality and images of aborted fetuses,” along with messages against strong independent women.

After the band performed their music, they separated the boys, girls, and faculty in the building, which should have been an immediate red flag. According to witnesses, the band talked to the boys about the band’s Ten Commandments and talked about musicians that have died of drug overdose. The discussion with the girls was much different. The band told them “to save themselves for their husbands and assume a submissive role in the household. The leader in that effort also forced the young ladies to chant a manta of sorts about remaining pure” and would not allow any of them to leave the room.

One parent, Jennifer Littlefield, told the Tribune about a phone call she received from her daughter after the assembly. “They told my daughter, the girls, that they were going to have mud on their wedding dresses if they weren’t virgins. I couldn’t even understand her, she was crying so hard. They told these kids that anyone who was gay was going to die at the age of 42. It just blows me away that no one stopped this.”

According to LGBTQ Nation,”the band is part of the “You Can Run But You Cannot Hide International” Christian youth ministry founded by Bradlee Dean. Dean has advocated for imprisonment of gays and lesbians, and has said that gay men molest an average of 117 children “before they get caught,” and that Muslim nations that execute gays are more moral than American Christians.”

Schools need to stop inviting these religious figures under the guise of helping kids. They don't. In fact, if anything, this will only promote more bullying in school due to slut-shaming and anti-gay sentiment.

And Christian Rock sucks IMHO.
That may be the single gayest thing I have ever read on this board. Or the old one. ;)

I probably would have assaulted them if they'd done that at my high school.
Her3tik, you have groupies.

There are a number of ways, though my favourite is simply to take them by surprise. They're just walking down the street, minding their own business when suddenly, WHACK! Penis to the face.

If anyone tried to pull this shit at my school, I would stage an impromptu civil disobedience protest. Screw the consequences.

There is an "Open Mic" at my school during lunch where a person or a band can get up and start singing or telling jokes or some shit. The only rule is that you can't attack anyone or be an asshole when doing it.

Never understood the whole christian rock thing myself. What's the point? When i turn on the radio, there's a nice song playing, and then it stops and the DJ is all "this is your Christian station," and I'm surprised? AGain, what's the point of listening to stuff that sounds just like Top 40? I hate top 40.

An appeal attempt to get more youth. Rock is associated with rebellion and which is some times associated with being self-assertive, progressive, and positive (to an extent). Christian rock is attempt at marketing Christianity as rebellious. Much like the whole "Not Of This World" brand.

Ya know...if they weren't letting anyone leave, why didn't the security officers give these bastards an introduction to fine taser technology?  Hell, my school had armed (as in fucking GUNS) police officers on staff.  I'd love to have seen them "escorted" off the premises...after being tased and put in zipcuffs.

Where's SWAT Lt. Spoony when ya need him?

Queenofhearts- The reason this band sucks is because they spend too much time worrying about gays and abortion when they should be working on their music skills.

I would have attacked them and try to get my friends out of the brainwashing arena.

Bunch of zealots, they are no better than Iran's Revolutionary Guard. That they admit they envy Iraq/n just shows how utterly amoral these people are. They're nothing but disgusting vermin that dress in priestly robes to disguise their filth.

A group of puritanical bigots like them have no place talking to children.

Ship them out to Iran and see how they like a "pure" nation.

Make that 2. The absolutely perfect response to this kind of thing.

But seriously, shouldn't it have been illegal to invite a Christian band at all, considering all their songs are likely religious in nature?

And a public school, at that. And the school paid the band with taxpayer money.

They can play Christian rock at my school the same day they play Anal Cunt over the intercom.

There's only one Christian Rock band that I would consider good, at all.

Newsboys.  Because it's not just praise songs set to distorted guitars, it's actually witty.

Granted, they haven't been relevant for years now, so there's that.
