What I also just can't put myself over is the dumb fact that Americans (well, at least what is seen in politics) always ramble on about religion too.
Just take a look at all of those speeches by presidential candidates. At least once they'll drop the whole God thing. I mean, that's not really helping now, is it?
When I look at politics over here in Europe, nothing like that is seen. I just don't quite understand it.

That's because in American (even though there's supposed to be a separation of church and state) the candidates biggest voters are religious freaks. A lot of people were pissed off when Obama got elected because they thought he was Muslim (which obviously shouldn't matter). But chances are if you're a Christian candidate and you go on and on about God in your speeches, etc you're gonna get a higher vote then someone who doesn't talk about God at all which honestly is a fucking stupid. But that's also one of the main reasons why I chose to move to Europe, less religious people and it's shoved down your throats the way it is in America.

Hell yeah they are :) Perhaps we should start a church dedicated to Hella kewl metal bands?


Re: [Serious Discussion] Religion - Maddolis - 04-07-2012

We don't need churches to be spiritual with our metal!
The bars are our churches, as the metal is our holy spirit.

Man that is such a classic one! It had been a long time since I last saw that video.
For sure, Blind Guardian are hella kawl. Tomorrow evening, hell yeah!


Re: [Serious Discussion] Religion - Maddolis - 04-07-2012

Oh you lucky bastard!
Did you get to see SepticFlesh?


Re: [Serious Discussion] Religion - Maka - 04-07-2012

Unfortunately I didn't. I was planning on going with two other people, but one fell off. Due to financial reasons for me (and in my cousin's case, medical reasons- he had surgery a while ago and wasn't sure at first if he would be able to attend), we decided to only go for the final day. That being said, I didn't go yesterday and won't be going today either. I guess the bands I did want to check out will have to be for another time. Anyway, as for yesterday, the only band I was really interested in is SepticFlesh though. I've already seen Rhapsody at Wacken, and I'm not too familiar with the rest of the line-up. It's a shame that I'll also have to miss Evergrey and Pathfinder, but I'm already giving out too much money as it is. The highlight for me is Sunday though: Lonewolf, Manigance, Power Quest, Stormwarrior, Mystic Prophecy, Powerwolf, Freak Kitchen, Epica, and last but not least, Blind Guardian.
