    I agree it's super shitty, but in the future you should find more creative, and less offensive ways to describe things than "gay".

    Yes and no, there is no 100% conclusive evidence to say that he existed as a man, however, there are other figures with less evidence in support of their existence that we don't question.
     
    I think it's fairly same to assume he existed​, it's the details of that existence that are questionable.
     
    Also, I love Religulous, so good.

    I have a lot of thoughts on this matter, and here is my best attempt to try to express some of those in a somewhat coherent way...
     
    Daegor and hobohunter made the best points in this thread. 
     
    I listen to a lot of bands who I would say most definitely have Christian lyrical content, be it more explicit (i.e. As Cities Burn, mewithoutYou) or more of a subtle influence (Brand New, Manchester Orchestra).

    I guess for me it really just comes down to whether a band is writing music because they're passionate about that music, or if they just play music so they have a vehicle to deliver their message (Sleeping Giant, For Today, etc. etc.). While I understand where you're coming from with the "Christianity doesn't belong in punk/hardcore scene" sentiment, I think it's missing the mark. Punk and hardcore isn't (or, ideally shouldn't) be about exclusivity.

    tl;dr –  daegor hit the nail quite squarely on the head with everything he said. I know people (and bands, for that matter) who would call themselves a christian who are much more radical, and counter-cultural than most people.

    Looking at things I'm annoyed that the majority of posts around here seem to be critical of the woman or at least critical of her decision making.
     
    So I'll give my opinion on the topic with the information at hand. 
     
    Looking at the steps she set forth for the accused to live up to;
     
    A)  Apologize both publicly and via written acknowledgement of his actions.  If this happened she would get something that most victims don't get, acknowledgement of how he hurt her.  Along with that he would forever be know as the guy from that band that raped that woman.  He would be stigmatized for life.  In a community where is literally a "Rock Star" he would forever be marked as a predator.  He would no longer be able to use his limited fame to prey on women.  Not saying there are or would be more women but it would dramatically hinder his ability to do something like this.
     
    B-  While this, from the outside, seems a bit silly it forces the accused to look at stories of how his actions have harmed the victim/s.  Realistically this step should involve the accused being forced to attend both group and individual counseling sessions.
     
    C)  Quitting, or going on hiatus, from Gaza would be the only way to immediately deal with other 2 steps set forth.
     
     
    We can look at this and say she should have done this, or that, or I would have done such and such, but, you know what?  We aren't in her shoes.  Period.  End of story.

    Have you ever been through the criminal system for being raped? In my state, less than 2% of charges of rape brought to the police end in the case being brought to court. Well less than half of those end in the perp being convicted. Not to mention that the victim gets dragged through the mud, everyone questions every decision in her life she ever made, and god forbid she has ever had sex before, because that alone will make her a slut in the public eye. She will have to relive it numerous times in court, to lawyers, have it picked apart by the defense attorney. She will have to spend close to two years in the legal system with absolutely no help at all on how to fill out the paperwork correctly, unless she hires a lawyer. If she is selling zines at shows, something tells me she probably isnt rolling in the money to afford a lawyer that can help her on this.
     
    So she stopped and wanted her coat back. People make odd decisions when going through a traumatic event. Perhaps she wanted to make things seem as normal as possible to try and survive the event and not end up with her head kicked in. Dont even pretend to know what it is like to be a rape survivor unless you are one, and even then you cant fault any of their decision making.

    I can't be the only one who does this when they're bored.. what are your favorite records to spin at a speed other than intended?
    Playing hardcore or metal sped up to 45rpm is always hilarious.
    This thread was sparked by listening to Washed Out-Life of Leisure slowed down to 33rpm.
