This is such a non issue. Do atheist have no other life than to look every little perceived negative from the religious' mouths? Almost 150 died for what? And the op feels this is important. Pathetic puke.

Hardly "death metal." Even if it was, that in no way justifies the stupid drivel coming out of this man's mouth. It's wrong on so many levels.

I grew up in it and my family is still in it. It's extremely psychologically abusive and its nearly impossible to live up to the standards that are set, causing lifelong self esteem issues and depression.

Independent Fundamental Baptists have the potential to be to Christianity what ISIS is to Islam. They are not, because in America they couldn't get away with it. The extremism, hate, and bigotry is the same however.

If you haven't kept up, numerous Muslim groups have strongly criticized the attacks in Paris. Not all Muslims can be lumped in with the extremists just like Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe does not represent the 70%+ of Americans who consider themselves Christian.

Who are you directing that 'pathetic puke' comment to?

The concept is 'cute', however, it was the Muslim terrorists who caused this tragedy.

EDIT: I just read what he said about "worshipping death" or Satan by going to the concert. As someone who attends a wide variety of shows, including some death metal, that is hilarious. Most are actually musician types who just appreciate the guitar and drum work...lots of really nice people at metal shows, as surprising as that might be to some.
Wow. Going by the name: I'd peg Eagles of Death Metal as some kind of 1980's kind of metal rock band.
