explain exactly how this is reaching out to nonbelievers for them to come to Christ? there’s no mention of Christ. it’s hiring a secular singer. this is the very same stuff we criticize megachurches of doing. it doesn’t work.

“explain exactly how this is reaching out to nonbelievers for them to come to Christ? there’s no mention of Christ.”

In my post, I wrote that *IF* this is the Pope’s way of bringing unbelievers to Christ... That is not to imply that I personally understand or subscribe to the logic (if that is what he’s trying to do, which is unclear at best).

And I agree - sadly, there is no mention of Jesus Christ.

She did "O Holy Night" at the Vatican Christmas concert last year. That's certainly a Christian song:

"Fall on your knees!"

It's on Youtube --

"O Holy Night" (LINK) And it's actually quite touching. It doesn't look like"The Vatican embraces atheistic punkdom": It looks like "Aging Queen of Punk Rock Embraces Christ."
