If you are not familiar with what is known as "Christian" screamo music, have a listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6eZemB_gHw

I wouldn't call it music. But proponents of it claim it can "reach young people where they are at". Personally, I would disagree - the Holy Spirit will reach people of all types where they are at. Gimmicks like this are not needed.

But what I really want to know is if this stuff is harmful. And should we prohibit our kids from hearing it? I sort of think it is simply noise - not helpful nor harmful. But maybe I am wrong. What do you think?
