No really. It's shocking, self-righteous, and it looks like someone went crazy with the exclamation points. Yeah, you know what kind of site I'm referring to. It's freakin' crazy.
ANYWAY, I didn't begin this post to tell my readers solely about this site. I intended to bring to attention a particular set of accusations against the group DC Talk, based upon biblical principles and truths. Or at least, that is what the author of this article states.
The article is entitled, DC Talk Exposed, and begins by introducing the "Jesus Freak" music video as one of the most popular Christians videos ever recorded. But, how "Christian" is it? (asks the following line) The author then goes into not-so-great depth to gorge this subject.
From here, we are told the director of the video is none other than Simon Maxwell, an Englishman and collaborator with the "satanic and blasphemous Nine Inch Nails." We learn that DC Talk was interested in roping him in for this project, due to his particular style, demonstrated specifically in NIN's "Closer." [side note: pay attention to anything with 3 or more exclamation marks (!!!), brackets, or anything that is CAPITALIZED]
And I quote,
The author refers to "Closer" as "ultra-blasphemous," pointing out the fact that the video shows a monkey crucified on a cross. It then goes on to quote Mr. Reznor himself,
"If you think I WORSHIP SATAN because of something you see in the 'Closer' video [with its images of a crucified monkey]- great!"ANNDDD for the conclusion: Because Trent Reznor talks about wicked, satanic blasphemy + DC Talk proudly admitting to watching Nine Inch Nails videos + liking those videos and hiring Simon Maxwell to direct their video = GOING TO HELL.
(Trent Reznor, People, Feb. 6, 1995)
"And believe me there's NOTHING Christian about the video!"
End quote.

i freakin love dcTalk
I am a little surprised, Louis. That is all you have to say? "i freakin love dcTalk." Come on man, no theological commentary? No thoughts?
Closer was not directed by Simon Maxwell. It was directed by Mark Romanek. Simon Maxwell directed the music video for Hurt. Should double and triple check everything you read on the internet.
