To suggest that Christian musicians must produce "Christian" music is like suggesting that "Christian" attorneys and plumbers must only do "Christian" jobs, whatever that would mean.

Along these lines is to suggest that only Christian plumbers should be hired...but my feeling is I want the best one for the buck. His religion is his business. Been let down by more than one tradesman with a fish next to his name.

Eddie Van Halen is (or was, at least) a GREAT guitar player. I don't know if he went to church.

I'll take it a step further. An argument can be made that putting your Christianity on your business card or signs (via the "fish," etc.) is exactly what the Word of God meant by taking the Lord's name in vain.

It is a very compelling argument, btw.
