so when Paul used common greek religion in his sermon on mars hill, was that satanic?
He had to know what gods the greek served in order to portray Christ in their world.
and
Romans clearly says that any truth that is out there is from Christ and since we belong to Christ, the truth is ours as well. Led Zeppelin are no different than anyone who is not regenerate, but the people who call music satanic bless the relgious right for serving an idol made of low taxes and right morals instead of truth.
Ill take good music and Christ over paranoia and idolatry any day

FYI -
Here are some of the backmasked lyrics from stairway to heaven...
"Here is to my sweet Satan. he is my god. He is my god."
"There's power in Satan."
There is a ton more. I verified it myself. It was not a pleasant experience.

Really! It was without a doubt demonic. It was an awful feeling listening to it.

Good thing we have Scott Baio (June 9, 2009 2:15 PM) keeping a watchful eye on the racial purity of our music. Those white Brits should stick to white music, I suppose -- or if they do play black music, they should be careful not to be too good at it. I just listened to Robert Johnson's "Stop Breaking Down Blues" and the Rolling Stones' cover of it (from their wonderful EXILE ON MAIN STREET, in which those crazy Brits really rock a bunch of American musical genres, including country (I'm sometimes moved to exclaim "Yee Ha!" while listening to "Torn & Frayed")). Love 'em both. (Stones pretty good for a "minstrel show.") Glad I don't have Scott policing my ipod. & Scott's choice?: "Hey Joe." Is that of a genre built on the experiences of African Americans? I guess that's ok because Hendrix was black. But wait! It was The Jimi Hendrix Experience -- which was Hendrix plus a couple of white guys "profiteering off of a genre built on the experiences of African Americans." (Hendrix plus a minstrel show?) Not so post-colonial after all, I guess.
