Another thing that bothers me is when people claim that Christian bands copy the styles of secular artists. Jars of Clay are in a class all by themselves. Many say that the Supertones are just copying the Mighty Mighty Bostones, but the very first ska group was in fact a Christian group called the Skatalites. People should give Christian groups a chance. There are a lot of great Christian artists out there of every genre.
Most secular music is driven by the world's lust for drugs, sex, violence, and money.
From the day I stopped listening to secular music I noticed changes in my life. There were changes in how I was acting towards people. My parents noticed a change too, as I became increasingly more radical for God. Now, I hardly ever listen to the radio, and I don't watch MTV any more either. It becomes easier every day to avoid these things.
