You know ... I'm a Christian and I erase almost every OTR digest I
get without reading them because there's next to no OTR content
in them. You want to talk about faith as it relates to OTR's music
I'm all for it, but if you want to just go off on theological tangents
either take it off list or to a different, more appropriate forum.
Why not talk about Jesus here? Because this is a discussion
forum specifically for Over the Rhine with hundreds of people
signed up who want to hear / talk about Over the Rhine and who
really don't care to listen to much else. To continually post off
topic, as these coversations are, is just plain rude. Especially
considering most of the talking happens between only a couple
interested parties ... it's really not that hard to take things off list.
