"Mary On A Cross" Is Extraordinarily Sacrilegious

- A 2019 song called "Mary On A Cross" by Ghost is resurfacing on the internet and is being used by Christians on TikTok. I don't think many Christians are actually aware of the lyrics, because the song is extraordinarily sacrilegious and blasphemous.

The overall theme behind ghost is that it's quite literally a satirical take on the Catholic church. A mockery if you will. If you're pissed off, that's the point.
if ghost pisses him off he should look at his religion first 😭😭 they're just taking the church's words and actions and repeating it but in an "evil""" way
Yessssssss! This is the EXACT point. Its extremely satirical and purposefully sacreligious. The Catholic Church moves Pedophiles around to different churches and takes zero responsibility.
@@Mr.Scar_Real because the Catholics are the ones diddling kids

People have been pointing this out for years as some sort of defensive explanation, while still pretending the reaction isn’t then justified due to it being accurate. People don’t seem to get that it doesn’t matter to a faithful Christian if the singer thinks they’re just doing it for the sole purposes of making money and getting a reaction. Christians still accurately see it is being used in spiritual warfare to numb the audience into not caring about such topics, potentially harming them.
A good phrase for all people to understand would be, just because you’re not interested in politics doesn’t mean politics isn’t interested in you, even if you’re just joking about it.
Replacing the word politics with spirituality helps illustrate the point being missed here.
Breaking news: local Christian man discovers hard rock music for the very first time
Not even hard rock lol
And immediately bans dancing. Lmao
Literally pop music with skeleton costumes
This Christian man thinks he own the word mary and cross and proceed to get upset. More tonight as 6.
@@holacrayola9209 Christians: and i took offense to it.
“Lot of church imagery then a lot of demonic costume”

Michael took one look at an album named "Seven inches of satanic panic" and satanic panicked.
I could not imagine taking Ghost this seriously.
Then you must not be a religious person.
I mean I could but not literally. I take their art seriously but only because of how much I like it and how much it means to me. That kind of thing warrants respect from me.
@@maskedmarvelhey look at Alice Cooper, he’s a Christian man for years. It’s nothing demonic or satanic it’s just satire.
@@FlipGuitarist80 Interesting, I never knew that. That argument makes sense, but you could look at it another way. Because of the way he presents himself, he comes off as not what he actually is to the general public. As a Christian, being not known as a Christian is something looked down upon, and presenting in an unorthodox way only contributes to that "secret Christian" theme. I guess my position is that it's not necessary evil or demonic to present a certain way, as long as it's clearly a show. Which I guess ghost falls into the category of.
@@maskedmarvel I don’t think being a Christian you have to appear or look godly. He does talk about it and not ashamed about it. It’s just his profession is a rockstar.
Honestly, pearl clutching over Ghost is hilarious because the band is so intentionally goofy.
Nah. I saw them live by chance. They are overtly satanic. Their entire setup is a satanic ritual black mass.
Nah man, some goth theater kid made a band that performs rituals, that's something the Christian God will never recover from
@@jeffoverwatch7177 Yeah that’s a career ender right there 😂
The band is having fun with what they’re doing, it’s nice to see people who don’t take everything so damn seriously

And I see nothing wrong with that 🤷♀

@commandershepard9601 but wouldn't it be funny if their papa was actually Papa?
Its funny bc ghost is: ‘oooo scary satanic’ but Tobias’s main message it to care for one another and look out for the little guys, which is a lot more Christian than a lot of Christians these days…
@@Thelimplinguine I mean, they do have a lot of satanic songs. But Satan isn't real and singing about him isn't going to magically doom everyone to eternal misery or something like that
@@thevarietychannelofyoutube4769 true, their whole brand is tongue in cheek Satanism and likes to poke at the church, my point was the message they put out is a lot more christian than how a lot of Christians are lol
Yeah but also respecting other people’s beliefs is part of “care for one another,” isn’t it?
@@HeLeadethUs No, no it is not. Respect is earned. There's nothing inherently respectable about religious beliefs, especially religious beliefs that have a proven track record of being used to do harm. Demanding other people adhere to your beliefs, and shunning them (or worse, threatening or killing them) doesn't warrant anyone's respect. On the other hand, going out of your way to be a decent person warrants respect. Christians claim they do the latter, but it's transparent to non-Christians that it's all performative. The notion of "decency" in religious belief systems is superficial, self-serving, and often implemented in an authoritarian manner. That's why we aren't obligated to respect it. Either be a genuinely decent person or reap what you sow.

How does someone with three kids give such overwhelming ‘bullied virgin nerd’ energy
🤣 More truth to that statement than what this guy is probably spouting off.
He gives off main character energy actually in my opinion
It's what happens when your wife has extracurricular activities. Children don't have to be his
Because he disagrees with you.
He doesn't he's just religious and your being a child for even saying that

You can’t judge them by one song. Listen to Year Zero. You’ll love that one.
That song isn’t even satanic either ! To me that song is about what happens after revelations or after one is sent to hell.
As well as From The Pinnacle To The Pit. Wear your independence like a crown.
If you have Ghost…
Ghost is fantastic. I love Micheal and all his opinions, and even found religion. Ghost is forever a good band

Ghosts music giving a middle finger to traditional religion is EXACTLY THE POINT. THE WHOLE POINT. Most of their fans are recovering from religious trauma of some sort and believe me, Tobias Forge is doing the lords work. Pun intended.

No i have no religious trauma. I jusr like the music like 99% of their fans i would say. The catholic church isnt that strong in germany or sweden i would say. If your in jehovas witness than thats a differenr story or maybe in some bavarian villages but its not like the times when my parents grew up. They left the church and i was a little sad they didnt believe in anything but thats a different topic...

I remember people like this protesting as I walked into a KISS concert in the 70's as a kid. "Knights In Satan's Service" they yelled. I walked in and enjoyed myself and saw an amazing show. I will do the same thing if Ghost comes to my town.
Funny you mention that, I recently went to their Houston concert and there was a protest near the venue. I guess nothing much has changed. The thought of a protest being held before the concert unironically made me enjoy the show more.
@@trashcanofbleach2356something has changed though: these dimwits have a much larger following and some actual political power now. To the point they could actually try to push legislation against modern music they dislike.

@@AS-yz2iz okay then what are we oblivious to?
I'm a Christian and enjoy the band's work and their aesthetic. I am able to see the songs for what they are, written by humans with a satirical take on Christianity. Mary on a Cross is particularly clever because if you actually listen to the lyrics it's quite clearly about marijuana. When you're getting angry in this way you're no different from a muslim who is outraged from depictions of Muhammed in media. Grow up would be my advice.
A Muslim loves his beloved Prophet more than his parents, children and every one or every thing. Religion is some thing quite personal to some one. One shouldn't be given a freedom to make fun of any religion, period.
@@hungrykittie5103 ofc you should. that's the point of parody. parody is not done by the king about the peasant. parody is done by the peasant about the king.
also religion goes like:
i can't do this because of my religion
and NOT
you can't do this because of my religion.
if you want to live by the book that is your choice. if someone else chooses not that is there choice. that's how freedom of opinion and freedom of choice works. neither religion nor government should be able to tell a free person how to live as long as it is within certain guidelines.
my opinion is that the universe doesn't need a god. i belive in science. i believe in physics and i believe in morals. if you however need a book, be it a law book or a holy book to tell you not to kill, not to be selfish or not to be an outright ass to anybody else and treat others, animals and the flora of this world with respect then well... you are a shitty and rotten person and religion just gives you a cloak of pretentious holyness to hide your disgusting personality behind.

It's either you're just christian by tradition or just a hypocrite. True christians hate this kind of stuff.
@@hungrykittie5103 I can and I will. Thats called free speech. We cant help making jokes when your religion is so silly.
As a Christian I can 100% say this guy gives us a bad name.
If you call yourself a "christian", then you need to follow the teachings of christ to your best ability if possible. And attempt to come closer to him through prayer, and attempt to *sin less* actively engaging in the gospel in whatever man. That is being a christian, otherwise, you're just saying a title. Which ultimately means nothing for your salvation. Guess what, Satan is a christian too, and so are all the demons in hell. What makes you and me so different from him?

Tobias Forge is a genius.
Absofuckinglutely!!!!!
Mohammed was a kidy kisser.
Wow! My brain big.
all publicity is good publicity. If he's got the religious conservatives talking about his work, more of them are likely to listen to it themselves. And if the parents are listening to it to see if its bad for their kids, then their kids are ABSOLUTELY listening to it.

The song is about sex and weed. It's written in such a way that it makes Christians clutch their pearls as well.
I hope you realize that it isn’t about the fact that Christian’s simply dislike it just because it’s profane/ derogatory (which it is) it’s because personally before I was saved I used to like worldly/secular music but I always felt darkness, miserable, oppressed, now that I’m Christian I know that Satan uses this to lead people astray, hate God then go to hell.

Because of this, there’s this impossibility that’s arisen for either side to empathize with the other. So sure, you think it’s funny that Tobias Forge effectively trolls an entire demographic, but do you also find it amusing when the ideal that’s the object of ridicule or mockery is something that you hold closely? I’d bet not; that’s likely what brought you here in the first place. Everyone gets rankled over something subjectively mundane.
I'm sure Ghost is devastated to see Michael Knowles disapproves of him
Obviously his opinion doesn’t matter, my opinion doesn’t matter, neither does you’re’s, it’s the fact that Satan has a dark agenda and uses worldly/secular music to led people astray, turn from God and ultimately go to hell instead of heaven

@@IronCliqueas a Christian, it’s not that it’s offensive, it’s more that the devil uses music as an instrument to capture that hearts and minds of people, Jesus Christ is the light of the world and the savior, choose Jesus Christ
John10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
1 Peter 5:8-9
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
@@Loverof_christ99 Or your just offended and blam it on the devil and not your thin skin
@@IronCliqueim actually not offended, before I got saved I literally loved rock music, and to this day, this aesthetic is sooo appealing to me, but I love God more, Satan comes as a being of light (2 Corinthians 11:14) I used to do whatever I wanted, but that made me feel depressed, miserable, confused & In darkness, once I gave my life to Christ he changed my life. He saved me from night terrors too!
This man is getting offended over a song because of his religious believes how pathetic 😂
frankly he's getting wrong at the wrong song. As far as their repertoire goes- MoaC isn't even religious. I could honestly see people like him getting reasonably upset over the absolute slam piece that is their cover of Phil Collins' song "Jesus He Knows Me" because they don't like admitting how corrupted the message of their books has been over its history
How about the success rate of the 2% or the crime rates of the 13%
"How dare people disagree with something I like" Is basically what youre saying
@@Orto4956 no, the general consensus of those of us making fun of this is that he has no idea what he's even talking about, is attacking a part of their setlist that isn't even satanic- and a lot of it IS and intentionally is- and generally is making himself look ignorant of the subject matter.
There is plenty for religious conservatives to complain about with this band, and that is the point. It exists as a mockery of and exploitation of the 70's/80s Satanic Panic. He is the target demographic to upset because that is what drove the spikes in sales of that style of music in those years. If you tell people not to do something, more people around them will do it for their own reasons. It is marketing more than actual belief in a mythological being. And this youtuber is being free publicity
isnt the song about drugs they just changed it to mary on a cross because it sounds like marijuana
Knowing how this song made this guy feel has suddenly made it my favorite song ever.
real
If you hate this guy so much just don't watch his videos
Ghost doesn't produce songs about Satan,they make them for Satan
Ghost is awesome you old farts are dumb
Incorrect, in the sense that they aka Tobias Forge is not intending worship of "Satan". Its the language of Metal music and its thematic, unfortunately its "uncool" to write in a pro-God manner so Forge doesn't do that. Forge quite clearly is not a "Satanist" in the sense of worshipping demons, he likes the visuals and the themes for lyrical material. He doesn't seem to view it as any more real than LOTR, as is the case with most secular people.
At any rate, the theology in his songs is nonsensical, most of the "praising Satan" elements of his songs are one word-swap away from worshipping actual elements of God. They're very nearly the best Christian Rock band out there, again with a few cross-turns and word-swaps
@@sercastamere9853it's dog shit
Boo hoo

Same and I’ve been feeling guilty about that so I don’t listen to them as much anymore. I saw them last August.
Ghost is the fucking best. Love Michael but he is way off here
As a (somewhat) conservative Republican, I just gotta tell my brethren to lighten the fuck up. It's a song... and a damned good one at that.
No it's blasphemy
It’s a song doesn’t make it less blasphemous.
Rock bands have been doing this schtick since the 80s. Nothing new to see here.
60s*
Black Sabbath are the OGs of satanic music and imagery
Try since the beginning of the genre. It's trash.
@@FrankD23 i mean what do people think black sabbath means. The onky difference is Ozzy and Dio actually sound good while singing, this is way to soft and pop like.
@@FlirriThis is definitely not trash! But you are entitled to your opinion.
Even if it is a song about alcoholism and the consumption of a Bloody Mary drink, the use of mother Mary as an imagery vehicle to convey the message shows the blasphemous sacrilegious disregard for the person and role of Mary, even for Protestants.
Nope. We don't worship Mary. She was just a human who fulfilled her purpose as a vessel. That's it.
@@Jeremy-wp4yhCatholics don't worship Mary either. But do you think God would be okay with showing blatant disrespect to His mother?
@@AS-yz2iz I don't think God is okay with humans praying to other humans living or dead. Jesus is the only one who intercedes for us.
@@Jeremy-wp4yh Okay. So don't ask others to pray for you. You don't need their prayers apparently. And don't pray for anyone else either. You still didn't answer my question though.
It’s actually about smoking weed…
this song pissing off christians is the funniest thing ever LMFAAOOOO
Fr, ruffling their feathers is so easy.
@@hopeforhobixo5142 Well it's not very hard to create Satanic and sinful material.
@@maskedmarveland obviously not very hard to fool people into religion either...
As someone who believes in God and still enjoys ghost and is interested in other people's views and religions and their perceptions of things. I find it funny that there are so many people that claim to be Christian but are so insecure in their beliefs that these things hurt them...
@@gospelarchain4504 How does being a Christian mean you can't be against displays like this? You act as if that's a contradiction.
At the end of the day, it's just a song. I'm Orthodox Christian and more conservative than liberal and I don't mind it at all. It has a good melody too.
Ghost>the daily wire
Ones a band and the other is a media company they arent really comparable
@@Orto4956I think that difference is what makes thing comparable.
Idk tho just me
@@s1storm Well they do very different things and serve very different audiences. Neither of their audiences particularly like each others. Personally I don’t care for either, I don’t listen to ghosts music and I also don’t listen to Michael Knowles podcast.
@@Orto4956 then why are you here ?
@@s1storm I watch Candace Owens and this got recommended to me. She’s the only DW person I ever really watch. The real question is why are you here if you disagree with the Daily Wires beliefs.
Have you ever met with Father Jim DeFroque? You'd probably get along with him, go to a hockey game with him and help bless the players.
Micheal probably made a lot of new Ghost fans with this post
Freedom of expression 🤷♀️ Blasphemy is a first amendment right
& If Their Was No “Blasphemy” Going On, They Have No Justification To Exist Since They’re No Problems Going On
No one said it isnt
The entire idea behind Ghost is that it is the horror movie equivalent of music. Tobias Forge, the writer and lead singer for Ghost, has repeatedly denied allegations of affiliation with Satan, the Satanic Church, and the occult. It’s more of a tongue-in-cheek performance. That obviously doesn’t change the content of the music or the religious/anti-religious connotations of the lyrics, but it’s an important factor to consider when listening to Ghost. Personally, there are some albums I like from Ghost, and some that I dislike rather strongly. Prequelle is a worthwhile listen that doesn’t make the Ghouls (members of Ghost) seem like infidels.
So true
Maybe you should stop listening to worldly/ secular music altogether
Romans 12:2
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
@@Loverof_christ99but all the Christian music is trash
@@leonrussell9607 no it isn’t, if it’s honoring and glorifying God/Jesus/the Holy Spirit, the the most beautiful music on earth
@@leonrussell9607 Satan is the God of this world, he is incharge of music here on earth because he was incharge of music when he was in heaven when he was Lucifer, he uses it to lead many astray
Revelations 12:9
So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
John10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
2 Corinthians 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
Well this song actually talks more about drugs than anything else:
1. Mary on a = Marijuana (they even sing like this live sometimes);
2. Tickle you internally = Effects cannabis has on ones humour;
3. Bloody Mary = Obviously the drink;
4. Speeding together = "a form of methamphetamine that is less potent (less strong) than ice";
5. We were riding high = No more explanation needed;
Obviously, Ghost is a satanic band by design, known for their double or even triple meaning lyrics, so the religious imagery and context will be and always been there.
gonna be a drug nerd here but speed is a form of amphetamine not methamphetamine so it's closer to adhd meds than ice
@@DefinitelyJarvis Thanks for the clarification! I had to google it, I admit :(
@@rinocerontebebado no problem, it's not like anyone's gonna care anyway.
Imagine being so soft that an unserious song offends you. Cry harder ❄️❄️❄️
Imagine if someone were to mock your mom, someone you love, or even other people that you love dearly being mocked in obscene ways. Wouldn't you be defending them and be sad or even angry that people are mocking your loved ones? Same thing with Catholics/Christians. Michael Knowles handled it pretty well when he witnessed the mockery of Mother Mary and Mother Church.
@@wildcard4552 No because I'm not a thin skinned moron who cries when people say mean words.
@@omegashinra7672 Not only insult is being directed to a brother of mine. But people also blaspheme and insult our mother church whom Christ, God Himself founded. Acting tough doesn't rule out defending your own loved ones and even your mother.

Hi. I’m Michael Knowles. You might know me as the preacher from Footloose.
You must be a blast at parties.
Welp, this comments section is easily the largest collection of Karens I've seen in a while... It's just a song, guys. It's harmless. No need to reassemble the Inquisition over it
Now that you mention it, that's a good idea
@@gabrielethier2046This is why Daily Wire sucks now. It stopped being a conservative news outlet and became a televangelist outlet instead.

And Mein Kampf was just a book.
Saying, "It's just a song," is the most meaningless nonsense ever. Songs can be evil, believe it or not.

@@johnperic6860anything can be evil if you allow it but if your secure in your faith this band or any like it shouldn’t have any power over you it’s only the insecure that should be worried and this band is all theatrics there are others that even I wouldn’t listen to
@@Talon18136
This isn't about having power over me or anyone else; it's about things that glorify God and things that blasphemy Him.
Has nothing to do with power, influencing faith, or salvation; it's about the fact that listening to music that mocks God, blasphemies God, etc., is evil regardless of how it impacts you and regardless of how you feel about it.
Can’t believe this dude took this so seriously. Bro took the bait.
Wait till he finds out about slipknot 💀
He probably thinks Metallica is satanic because of songs like Leper Messiah or The God That Failed.
Ever heard of Marduk or Archgoat
@@Demon__Killer007ironically, Michael & the daily wire actually agree with Leper Messiah’s message, that televangelists are bad people. At least I hope they do, as well as Michael having the IQ to figure out that’s what the message is.

Are you 14 or something?
I literally couldn't understand what they were singing lollll
Right I just heard Mary 🤣 😂. I'm just praying for them.
I thought I was the only one. Lol
Praise God!

Came here to say the same
Dude sat on all 7 inches and is spinning for his life 😂
My grandmother is catholic and she liked the song when I played it in the car
On the eve of my conversion to Catholicism around 5 years ago, I tried to convince myself that Ghost was just edgy and it wasn't real, but then I found out Tobias Forge is a high ranking Freemason and that did it for me.
If you think being a Mason has anything to do with the occult you should just keep your opinion to yourself. Because that's like walking around wearing a neon sign that says "I'm the most gullible person in the room"
Where'd you find that out, I wonder. I'm assuming it was the ever-reliable internet
@M4GG0TK1NG Never read the "Permanent Instruction of the Alta Vendita", huh? Look who's gullible.

No one's saying they can't sing it.
Ghost is basically doing the same thing GWAR did. It’s tongue in cheek, satire, sarcasm. It’s supposed to funny. Some people just don’t get it.
From all the Ghost songs this is honesty one of the least satanic ones.
Everbody has fun
Michael Knowles: NO !
Wait til he hears Year Zero...
Ah man, I thought the exact thing. In fairness this guy is exactly what griftwood is all about. He's so disingenuous about everything and the only negative thing about ghost is that this guy is getting a boost in the algorithm.
You seem to think that people shouldnt be allowed to disagree with the music you like.
@@Orto4956 it's not about disagreeing, it's about the fake outrage and soying out.
Especially when most of these media guys are the biggest degenerates out there.
@@Orto4956 I think you're confusing enjoying the music with the fear mongering that comes from hard line conservative Christianity. No one is going to hell because of ghost, nobody thinks it's anything more than stagecraft and if you spent any time following the band that's pretty obvious. Cardinal Copia is a loveable goof who rides a tiny trike and papa nihil is a ghost who complains about being hungry. It's all a show, a very good show (especially live) and purely in the realms of fiction. If you're going to call it blasphemy then any adaptation of anything biblical is equally blasphemous.
@@Orto4956 Nah I am good with anyone liking or not liking what I like. However, what I will not do is tolerate anyone beating me over the head with the bible because they don't like the music I listen to. And I've had that happen with multiple people, including family members.
People absolutely can think the music I like is shit.....and at the same time, I can absolutely think your religion is shit.
Laughing my ass off. Can't believe we are actually getting "The Satanic Panic 2.0" in my lifetime.
I thought for sure that “Jesus he knows me” would be the Ghost song they’d freak out about first haha… Square Hammer prolly my favorite Ghost song.
Exactly 😂🤘
This is ridiciolus 😏

I have to show this to my friends, so we can point fingers and laugh at you together
I was NOT expecting these comments to pass the vibe check… but they actually do
Everyone knows even this video is a dog and pony show. This "preacher" probably doesn't even personally care and is merely engagement baiting.
Ghost has been described as Blue Oyster Cult with the lyrics of Mercyful Fate or King Diamond. Ghost loves to troll Christianity.
They come from Scandinavia, which is highly secular.
It’s just all so incredibly lame and unoriginal. They steal all their imagery from the Church while making bland drivel that passes for music. Completely derivative in every way.
Usually, evil is actually tempting, but this is just boring 🥱
@bluesdealer I agree, especially considering the country Ghost comes from, Sweden, which is one of the most secular countries in the world. Similar with most of the black metal bands which come from Scandinavia - these countries are very secular. Who are they trying to trigger, if most people in these countries are already atheists or agnostics? They might as well write blasphemous lyrics against Zoroastrianism, which perhaps less than 500,000 followers worldwide.
Note: They would not dare write blasphemous lyrics against Islam.
Get over yourself. Organized religion is a joke and you fell for it.
What a snowflake haha
Michael Knowles needs to listen to "He is" by Ghost if he thinks this is bad
That would be a fun ride af 💀😂

This shouldn't shock or upset Christians, it should make us feel bad for them. They don't know God's love & forgiveness, they don't know salvation and they've probably never read the Bible. All they know is trying to be edgy and artistic by doing the same schtick that's been done by a thousand other bands.
The issue is more so that the song is exceptionally catchy but has overtly evil lyrics. They made a song which very easily harms others.
Sometimes, you have to admit that these people know and despise God. Satan didn't rebel out of ignorance. They're just the enemy.
@@KevinSmileyou're right, but Paul was an enemy of Christ at first.
There's always hope
@@johnperic6860So what? I also listen to Metal and Rock. There are a lot of Metal bands that are not satanic or did not employ satanic imagery (and I mean satanic imagery in a way that denigrates God) or satanic lyrics. I don't believe that simply mentioning the devil in a song automatically makes a song satanic. As long as you aren't praying to him or you aren't deliberately attacking God, all should be well.
But then again, I see people comparing Ghost to Black Sabbath (who literally wore crosses because they thought it would protect them from witchcraft) in the comments which just makes me understand how dumb Michael's community is. It's just natural since he himself is just a religious poser anyway, so how would his community know any better.
@@OGTK00
I don't recall calling all rock or metal satanic. I myself don't listen to metal, but I listen to punk rock.
I also don't recall saying that mentioning the devil makes a song satanic.
My comment was about evil music, and mocking God, which is the case for this song.
Ghost sounds like Scooby-doo chase music. Just play a ghost song along side of a clip where Scooby-doo runs from the monster. It fits so well lol.
Exactly! Cheesy "Metal"
@@dbrox747 I love metal myself but ghost is cringe lol
Funny, I was about to comment that is sounds like mid tier CCM from the 1990's
This is so accurate it hurts
I'm a long-time Atheist and this is nothing that I would spend any money to listen to or even watch them in concert. Then again, part of being an Atheist is that I don't believe in any Deity or their minions such as Angels or Demons. Since I don't believe in a God, I also don't believe in a Devil either.
Given that, I do think it is very weak when people try to tear down someone else's beliefs. People can believe whatever they want and they can display their beliefs however they wish as well. I just find it weak-minded when you get Satanists trying to destroy Christians or other religions.
It also doesn't bother me when I see The Ten Commandments displayed in public. They were used to create many of our laws that still are in existence today. People ask me how I can't be bothered by them and I just tell them that they are common sense moral laws created BY MAN and NOT by a God. It's too bad Democrats have been able to get many of them struck down in many states. Such as Adultery laws.
