sure, there’s some CCM that i like. but, in general, there’s some truth to this hilarious quote:
“Christian music always seemed like the Special Olympics of music.”
(sent to my by bob carlton. quote attributed to Merlin Mann via Matthew Johnson @ the BHT.)
The quote is from Merlin’s podcast “You look nice today”, taken from one of the first episodes. The entire context is pretty hilarious, and it’s sadly a very truthful quote IMO!
That might be the best quote I’ve heard in years. Amazing…and true.
I think you should remove the quote. I remember the Asian skit controversy…. Have you ever been to a special Olympics?
Do you know someone who has family or friends in the Special Olympics? I might have haters cause I said that but I am ok with that.
jeremy — i think the special olympics are wonderful. this isn’t a slam on them whatsoever. it’s a slam on CCM.
nice throw-back to the skits that teach mess, though!
If you think the Special Olympics are wonderful why compare it to CCM? I understand your point, but I think you could make it more carefully.
