i barrowed this book from one of my college friends just out of curiosity.
i respect all the kinds of religion out there but making rock music as the devils human existance can really irritate me..
i find this book deluded in all aspect. Is it right to blame music for the juvenile deliquency of the youth?
is anyone have red this too? what do you think..

Yeah I have read this book a long time ago. I do not beleve that the music is to blame for all the deliquency of youth, nor video games, nor tv. I think the problems with our youth's moral decline is caused by an assortment of things such as the tv, video games, music, pop culture, peer pressure,and the complete lack of parental responsibility. If we were to talk to our kids rather than telling them to "Shut up I am watching tv" they would have good advice rather than half a**ed advice from their friends. If we were to take an active part in their lives AS A PARENT rather than as a FRIEND or distancing ourselves from them, they would have someone to look up to rather than the pop idols. We are indirectally to blame for them and they are our responsibility, so what if we want to do better by them than our parents were with us, we turned out alright. If more parents would take an active role as a parent it would not be this bad. As for The Devil's Disciples ... those that follow that crap are just looking for someone or something else to blame for their problems rather than theirselves where the blame belongs. What better cop out "*snif, snif*I got stoned because I was listening to Pink Floyd! *sob, sob*" Horse S**t!! You got stoned because you wanted to try it and you gave into peer presure, case closed take the blame that you deserve. Just like (I think it was) Jimmy Swaggert "Forgive me for I have sinned... the devil caused me to have immoral relations with that woman" SHUT THE HELL UP!!! Unless the devil is your d**k misquoted, the devil did not cause you to do anything! Anyways I have ranted enough on this subject so I am going to bed it is 05:29hrs and I may need some sleep to get in a better mood.
