Dave Mustaine is a fundie.
Tom Araya is a catholic.
As for Metallica and Anthrax, I don't know much about their religious outlook, but Scott Ian is ethnically Jewish at least.
Is this still the 80's or something?
Time to dig out "Rock's hidden persuader" for a giggle. I may even blog excerpts if anyone is interested.

I'm not sure how this slipped into the Conspiracists section. Looks like Mk. I Mod. I fundamentalism to me.
Then again, given that this is High Cockatrice Stewart we're talking about, an FSTDT/CSTDT dyad is probably the default understanding.

@Skyknight
It's fundie yes, but he's also claiming it's a satanic conspiracy of heavy metal bands.
I had to put up with a lot of this type of shit myself at the height of the lunacy, but then I was in a death metal band so it came with the territory.

David J. Stewart has been exposed as a pervert and a hypocrite.
Stewart rails against popular music on his website but on his online dating profile he posts that he listens to that same music.
http://davidjstewartexposed.blogspot.com/2009/08/david-j-stewart-likes-rock-music.html
And then there is that whole child molestation charge that he plead guilty too.
http://davidjstewartexposed.blogspot.com/2011/01/david-j-stewart-pleads-guilty-to-child.html
But hey, at least he isn't sharing a stage with Megadeth and Slayer, because THAT would totally cause God to vomit.
And Alex Jones? Really?

Okay, three things...
Number 1: dark =/= evil
Number 2: Are you freaking serious?! Get back on your medicine!
Number 3: SHUT UP, you hypocrite!

Standard Christian tactic of giving pedophiles platforms.
As for you, Mustaine, see what happens when you sell out to evil? Not even the monsters you keep company with believe you.

Down went the gunner, a bullet was his fate
Down went the gunner, then the gunners mate
Up jumped the sky pilot, gave the boys a look
And manned the gun himself as he laid aside The Book, shouting
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition and we'll all stay free!
-Frank Loesser, "Praise The Lord And Pass The Ammunition"
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in my heart
No slave to beliefs that propagate pain
When all is said and done
Heaven lies in our hearts
This life is a gift to be lived and loved

oh come on!
"witchcraft lyrics, incomplete thoughts, fragments intended to plant ideas into the listener's subconscious mind, while the conscious mind cannot detect the meaning"
at the risk of doing an " it's not a bug, it's a feature": metal is dense (you don't say!) it's an amalgam of different ideas thrown at you, each listening highlights another idea, you meditate on those ideas on and off throughout your day.
the lyrics are clouded in metaphors because listening to "the guv'mint ain't cool" doesn't sound as dark and forbidding as, say, "on ragged wings, the harpy swoops down upon my kin".
but obviously, this is too complicated for fundies to understand. geez, nowadays you knock metal because it sounds harsh (heavy distortion and growls), not because of the lyrics.
also, mustaine for the fail. guy is a hypocrite.
@Lpopman: wiki says hetfield was raised christian scientist (pretty fundie), no info for hammett (though irish dad, so maybe catholic), and no info on ulrich either.
by the way, any recordings of your band? i'm always interested

"Heavy metal is nothing but death... and crime... and the rage of a beast ."
And if you play his music backwards, you can hear him say "Satan eats cheez whiz!"

Since when whatever Mustaine says or does matter? What a redundant rant.

Doubting Thomas
Wait a minute, I thought Christians always loved stories of evil, heathen, witchcraft-practicing, drug-addicted Satan worshipers suddenly becoming "saved" by being "bathed in the blood of our lord and savior Jesus Christ." They're always telling stories of how evil and terrible they were before finding Jesus, often to the point of making one wonder how much of it is true or not.
Maybe David J. Stewart thinks that it's evil heavy metal music which makes him want to touch young girls.

One of the better bits of the whole rant: "Hollywood, Walt Disney and Late Night television are leading the way in lusciousness, smut and bring the destruction of God upon our nation. "
...and a ton of irony meters explode.

David, I'd swear this was written in 1987 if not for the mention of Alex Jones. Please get new talking points.

Funny, I've been listening to Megadeth since 1987 and I don't recall any lyrics about Satan worship. OK, there's 'The Conjuring' but I think that's more a ritual magic sort of thing.
PS Dave is a fucking tool these days and no one takes him seriously except you wingnuts.
PPS I'm going to send this idiot a Deicide CD just to watch his head explode.
Thumbs up to Raised by Horses for the Napalm Death lyrics.

I guess if he's been convicted of child molestation he had to stop with the rants about young girls tempting him by displaying themselves in public, and this is all he could come with.

"I HATE EVIL as Psalms 97:10 commands all believers to do."
So you only hate evil because your favourite book tells you to?
