About that Christian band not playing in Rossford Ohio
IMO, public schools are not the place to preach religion. Check out the lyrics in the article..sounds extremist to me.

Column today in The Toledo Blade.

Just say no to Pawn?


snip:

Well, spreading the Gospel is the point of evangelical Christianity, right? It should surprise no one to hear a Christian musician explain the symbiosis of music 'n' message, but check the band's Web site for confirmation (emphasis original):


"Pawn's main purpose is to spread the word of God to those who do not know Him, and in doing so, give people the love of Christ. We want to reach people for God. You can expect a couple of things from us: First, we will always try to get to a gig early to talk and associate with the people coming to or organizing the gig (and we will probably stay late). We believe that evangelism at its best is created through relationships."

1. Spreading the gospel?
Seriously, how many Americans don't know who Jesus Christ is? I'm sure they need to find other stuff....like their brains.
