What the world is Cruz babbling about? Rockers "responded" with albums like The Rising (Springsteen) or sang a song called "Freedom" (McCartney) at the Super Bowl.

Ted Cruz listening to rock is sort of of like going to a rave and seeing your grandmother there.

So the question was, how did rock respond?
:guitar: Highway to Hell ~ AC/DC :burnlib:
Wow. Rock and roll responded to 9/11 way back in 1979, when that song came out? That's amazing.
"Country music promotes drunkenness and adultery." ~ Adrian Rogers

It really kind of does ...

To the pure all things are pure,
Including hokum?


Anyway, so Granite responds with specifics contrary to Cruz's odd generality and...
:patrol: Pander alert.
You think that's a bear, don't you?


A sober man of honor can listen to country music and maintain sexual integrity.

Ghetto types have no self control. ]
Ghetto types? Don't hold back on our account. Elucidate.

Anyway, I remember the post 9/11 response from the artistic community. It was moving. Unified for the most part. Shame people had to do their best to pull that apart...still is.

Haha, exactly. Who was Cruz listening to anyways? Classic rock? I didn't know they made classic rock in the 00s.

He must have been a fan of Nickleback.

He liked how country responded with feuds like Toby Keith and the Dixie Chicks over whether Bush sucked as a president or not?

Looking at that disjointed page of quotes it seems you have a stereotype and rationality problem. Also, unless you want me to start putting Humanist quotes within your text I'd advise against abusing scripture and attributing it to me.

That's your nutty wheelhouse.

:yawn: You're projecting again (Eph 4:14). :noway: I love stereotypes. You do not (Eccl 10:2, Jn 10:10).

What's stopping you? Certainly not integrity. :idunno:

Projecting an accurate assessment onto the internet. :)

Right. Stereotypes are the province of lazy thinking.

What's stopping you?
I can make my point without trying to make yours something it isn't.

Certainly not integrity. :idunno:
I'm surprised you can even spell it. But I did go to the crazy quote page where you do a great deal of that stream of unconsciousness shtick of yours.

TH misquotes me
No. I replaced your material with a bolded sarcasm then made doubly sure the point that it wasn't your actual writing was there by literally writing "Fixed that for you."

What you did was put scripture into my writing without any indication that it was your insertion and contextualizing, assuming you put that much thought into the material.

What you did, altering without attesting, was worthy of your own integrity shot. And your link backs me on it.

Hmmmm, this kind of rock music..

Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
On the fight, for they are right, yes, by who's to say?
For a hill men would kill, why? They do not know
Stiffened wounds test there their pride
Men of five, still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know


For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls


Take a look to the sky just before you die
It is the last time you will
Blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery
He hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see


For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls

I love stereotypes. :jump: Stereotypes help us to understand people groups
I think that's exactly backwards. From hard hearted republicans to bleeding heart democrats, stereotypes are the comfort food of discourse, but they're mostly empty calories.
