Iowa Schools Suprise Assembly turns out to be Hatefest.
« on: March 15, 2012, 09:32:33 am »
The video on the link pretty much speaks for itself.

Quote
Students at an Iowa high school got a strange surprise at an assembly last week when what had promised to be a (probably pretty boring) presentation about bullying and making good choices took the Christian NuMetal express train to Crazytown.

Leading the assembly was Minnesota-based Christian rock band Junkyard Prophet, a group closely affiliated with You Can Run But You Cannot Hide International (abbreviated to the still laughably long YCRBYCHI), a Christian youth ministry.

You Can Run But You Cannot Hide International (YCRBYCHI) was recently listed as an anti-gay hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Turns out school officials didn't know that.

Research, dammit.

In addition to informing his young listeners that most gay men will die by age 42, Dean also spends a couple minutes analyzing the lyrics to a Lady Gaga song which, let's be real, we've all done with our gay friends. Later, he divided the students up by sex and told the girls that they "would have mud on their wedding dresses" if they were not virgins at the time of their marriage. The presentation also featured pictures of aborted fetuses, because of course it did.

Yeah... the school or students should sue...
I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Already here I think.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

Why is everything about abortion and homosexuality to these people?  Talk about broken records.

I had to laugh when I heard the name Junkyard Prophet.  I happen to live in Minnesota, so they're a local band around here.  I remember a while back when my friend's brother bought an album of theirs, not realizing that they were a Christian band.  He was quite disappointed when he heard the lyrics.  I'm not sure what worse about them: that they're crazy fundies or that they're a nu metal band.   ;D

I think there is an argument that the title of the other thread was not entirely indicative of the contents within. I should hope we are not all required to read every single thread here.

I agree.  I can't even find it.  Is it old or something.

Besides, when people do make a mistake and double post, why can't others just ignore it?

Christian Rock at School couldn't tell him what the thread was about?  And no, it's not old.  It was post on the 11th and hadn't even left the 1st page of Religion.

Ironbite-which really is where this topic belonged.

Hell, check the third post (which is mine).

Uh, how about, no? I have not looked at the thread. At all. Until you brought it up here, I thought it was probably about some fundie school banning rock music, including Christian Rock. Or something along those lines. Never even crossed my mind that it was about a school getting visited by a fundie Christian Rock group.

Since this a duplicate of an existing thread, I am locking this one.
The original thread can be found here:
