Kid Rock opened up about his collaboration with fellow Detroit musician Eminem on his new Christian album, "Halfway 2 Jesus," telling "My View with Lara Trump" on Saturday that the longtime friends have refused to let their political differences come between them.

"We said years ago, we said, 'Man, let's not let politics divide us.' And we never did. And so when I asked him to be part of this... he totally got it," Kid Rock said.

Eminem… Christian… yeaaahhhhh
As in this case, it applies to vulgar morons and stupid ideas, too.
I tremble for someone who says, “I didn’t get saved; I’ve always been right with God”.
And as for beer and koinonia, Paul romped the Church at Corinth for this very thing. (1 Corinthians 11)
The ideological divide is such nowadays that there is no common ground. Paul, by the Holy Spirit, asked rhetorically, “What agreement has light with darkness? What fellowship has the temple of God with idols? What concord have Christ and the devil?” Enough said.
Kid Rock opened up about his collaboration with fellow Detroit musician Eminem on his new Christian album, “Halfway 2 Jesus”. I won’t be buying it.
