Is there any music worse than Christian pop? I'm talking about the kind you hear on the all Christian radio station, where every song sounds exactly like the last one and all the words are exactly the same -- the kind where between songs, you'll hear that gentle male preacher voice lulling you to sleep with the love of Jesus. Someone in our neighborhood has been blasting it to the neighborhood, perhaps in the hopes that doing so may save some of us sinners (or perhaps it's being done in an effort to finally drive us to the devil once and for all, in an effort to escape that horrid, horrid sound). Dear God, please deliver us from your devotee and shut off that infernal racket . . .

I've listened to Underoath and The Devil Wears Prada quite a bit, although they're more like Christian heavy.

This was Christian Lite, the adult contemporary of Christian pop.

I found a "Alt Christian" channel on a friend's 700+ channel Satellite TV. It was like,

1. Take music by Limp Bisket (sp?), Counting Crows, Evanescence, etc.
2. Surgically remove lyrics.
3. Surgically implant New Testament-based new lyrics.
4. Serve at a (Gospel of) Luke Warm temperatures.
5. Try to enjoy...

Alt Christian: where blandness goes to become more bland than you can possibly imagine.

Although their call-and-responses are unique at least...

Lead Singer: "Whitchita! Whatcha gonna tithe?"
Crowd: "Dude! 10%!"

Sounds like you need to counter-blast.

No need -- I think the Lord must have heard my prayers.
