Bands Like 19 Lions Are Not What It Seems

By Donna Moore


Rock and roll music has long been an avenue where those with a religious perspective push their beliefs on young people. Bands such as 19 Lions attempt to convince young people to get on their knees and submit to the authority of a church. It teaches them self-hatred and subjugation to an institution which, historically, has done more harm than good.

The Roman Empire conducted a meeting called the Counsel of Nicaea where the basic concepts of Christianity were decided. The empire had grown too big to manage, and it was believed that they could use the one-God notion in order to unite all of the people of the empire. Once a small and obscure cult of rebels, Christianity became the reason for the expulsion of the Jews and the burning of the witches.

The Wiccan and Pagan communities still refer to the Dark Ages as The Burning times. Their Book of the Law was created in order to push secrecy in an age of fear within ancient communities who had been rocked by death and torture from the Catholic church. So great was their fear, in fact, that they fought the intrusion through secrecy rather than outright warfare.

The basic precept of Christianity involves convincing us all that we are born evil and sinful, and that redemption can only be achieved through submission to a worldly organization known as church. Without salvation, they claim, human souls cannot enter into a Kingdom of Heaven. It is through fear of an unpleasant afterlife that they are able to push their destructive ideology.

The alternative, according to Christians, is eternal torment in the lake of fire known as Hell. Convenient that the creators of Christianity would use what is traditionally regarded as the most painful experience of death as a means to force submission on the people. Through fear, guilt, and a lack of basic knowledge and education, Christianity continues to have a strangle-hold on the entire human race.

It would seem that the Roman Empire never fell. It simply changed form, and now calls itself the Roman Catholic Church, and it has a history of war, corruption, and mass murder on an epic scale. Rome continues to be a power to be reckoned with in the world, via the Vatican, which is considered a separate country from the rest of the Italian peninsula.

Our entire history has been hijacked by the Roman Catholic Church, and it is not known how many volumes of ancient texts they still hide in the catacombs. The Library of Alexandria is only one example of crusaders invading, burning, and stealing manuscripts that should have remained available to all people. Now we have this abridged history of our world that tells us nothing of who we really are or where we came from.

Why would parents want their children listening to music that aggrandizes an institution with the historical weight of millions of murders on their hands. Regular rock and roll music generally speaks of love, sex, and fun. Christianity wants us to think those perspectives are sinful, but somehow groveling for forgiveness for existing is encouraged.
