[QUOTE="GeorgiaGuyinAtlanta, post: 60883839, member: 142763"] I'm not buying those arguments. While one can talk about life issues, and I certainly would not discourage someone from doing so, when you are known for being a "Christian band", it is imperative that your primary objective be to honor the name of Jesus. Speaking of "you were meant to live for so much more", without even mentioning Jesus means nothing to the secular world. What "so much more"? That could mean anything, in the same way that "I dare you to move" could mean anything. Where is the glorification of the Lord in this? When people are "screaming" and excited to help the lead singer crowd surf, while the singer seems to take happiness in doing this, where is the emphasis? It certainly isn't Jesus, in my opinion. I saw Switchfoot in concert, and they gave a speech about social issues, not Christ. I see a profound difference between Jeremy Camp, Todd Agnew, or Chris Tomlin, who I see as truly loving the Lord and wanting people to come to Jesus, and Switchfoot, who seems more about being wishy-washy in some diluted message.
