Why do ignorant people think Rock is the devil's music?

Question

MQ- do you still use cd players, tapes, radios, record players, etc. or have you gone to Ipods, mp3 players, downloading music to your computer??

Answer 1

My mom said that about Motley Crue back in 1985 when I wanted to see them in concert  ( i was only 14) She refused for quite some time to let me hang posters of them on my wall. Needless to say, I went to the concert and hung the posters!!!  Anyway, I just saw them again 3 weeks ago in Sacramento, ca., and it was wonderful.  I had to laugh and tell my mom that I guess some phases in life never seem to pass, because Nikki Sixx is just as hot now as he was 23 years ago!  My mom thinks it's funy that I am still so much of a fan, and she knows now that there was no harm in my infatuation with them.  She just couldn't get passed all the makeup! HA HA

Answer 2

Cause they're ignorant.

MQ: iPod mostly.

Answer 3

I used to think that Marilyn Manson was devils music and wouldnt even listen to rock..until I met my boyf who was into Heavy Metal and I became a convert! and I now love marlyn manson!

I was just stupid and ignorant..but I was 16 so at least that is my excuse

Answer 4

who cares. even if it was, then i'd say Hail Satan lol

Answer 5

Because they are precisely ignorant ?

Answer 6

Because they don't know fact from fiction and actually take time to research the bands background before they say things about them.

MQ-I use radios, tapes,cds, I want a record player for vinyl, and I just got and iPod for a graduation present.

Answer 7

You said it-- Because they're Ignorant

MQ: I have some vinyls. I also buy a lot of CDs, but I have an MP3 player.  

Answer 8

Because they have the same IQ as the people that signed Maroon 5 to a record contract, well if rock really is the music of the Devil, then the Devil is my homeboy!

Answer 9

all theists are ignorant...

Answer 10

They still do?

MQ- I've moved on.

Answer 11

The word "ignorant" in your question is the key word here.

Some people associate some of the visuals related to rock and metal to Satan-related themes. And some people are just creeped out by good music.

Of course, though, there are some bands who aren't what you'd call "holy" bands who'd be accepted in a church. But that doesn't make them all evil. I think some of the generally ignorant people would be surprised at the uplifing themes some bands have.

MQ- I use a combo. I like my iPod if I'm going to school (they're allowed to be used during study times). But, generally, I use CD players and cassette tapes when I'm at home. If I'm on the computer, though, I'll probably be listening to music I ripped from my CDs.

Answer 12

you said it, because they're ignorant. Hip-Hop in the past 8 years has been all about the street, s*x, drugs, and being as materialistic as possible -- DEVIL TRAITS

Pop - has been about being vain, shallow, and bullsh!tting your way in and out of relationships, and of course being a w***e -- DEVIL TRAITS

reggaeton - no comment

Rock isn't the only one

Answer 13

Well you already said it: because they're ignorant.

MQ: both, except for record players and tapes (that's old school!), I'm only 17.

Answer 14

because they're ignorant.

Answer 15

Cause they are stupid ignorant idiots. They need to hear some good music!

As for the MQ:

Yeah, I love CD players, cassette tapes, radios, and even record players. I get my hands on my dad's Jimi Hendrix Axis Bold As Love as much as I can. Vintage is the way to go. Hm, but I also have an iPod...call me two faced, but I love vynal and mp3!

Answer 16

Why do people think that all rap is bad? Its the samething, its all stereotyping. For example, when someone comes to the rap/hip hop section and says "rap sucks"......it angers the fans of rap and will make them say "rock is devil's music".

Answer 17

I don't think I've ever heard any actually call rock the "devil's music."

MQ: I rely on downloading and my iPod.  

Answer 18

That's ridiculous I think it's because of the satanic black metal bands
