![]() And just because the sounds of songs of theirs sound like the style of "pop/punk" and "Christian punk" songs does not mean that's what they are the genre of a song is based on their lyrics and what they mean. The same goes with Relient K doing opening shows for and touring with secular bands. If I went and sat through an evolutionary teaching, that does not make me an evolutionist or change my faith. As Christians, our job is to get out of our little comfort zones and meet/talk/fellowship/share with all peoples of all types. I'm going to sound like a preacher here, but this is the only way to explain it.
