Is there "atheist" music?
While seeing the best christian music thread, and my overall love of Sarah McLachlan which lead me to the cover of XTC's "Dear God", I was just curious to if there was any genre of music that intentionally wasn't religious (hmm, apparently there is based on a search), anyway, what would be the best songs within that?

I'd go with The Symphony of Science.

Music is music... and then there's the Dolls...



There is no shame in not knowing. The problem arises when irrational thought and attendant behavior fill the vacuum left by ignorance. ~ Neil deGrasse Tyson
Perception is up for grabs, and truth seems to be the one precious thing, that no one wants anyone to find.

Greydon Square is an Atheist Rapper. If you like rap, you may like his album 'The Kardashev Scale'.

His song 'Stockholm Syndrome' is probably one of my favourites. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dG-fxbEdOAU

Skunk Anansie-Selling jesus.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P0yUagEX...re=related

Lyrics (caus I can)

You kill me with your smelly fingers

Your smelly fingers from the sex you had on Christmas Day

And now you say you're feeling guilty

You're feeling guilty 'cos your god was shining on your face

You go to church and light a candle

And then you're blinded by the light from the golden pews

The devil's snapping at your toes now

Because the angels can't be bothered to look up to you



They're selling jesus again

They're selling jesus again

They want your soul and your money your blood and your votes

They're selling jesus again

Selling love to you - selling love



You're buying this you're buying that now

You're wishing all the money in the world belonged to you

You're crucified upon you're own cross now

You're givin' money to the white men in the white limo

That kind of god is always man-made

They made him up then wrote a book to keep you on your kness

They get their theories from the same place

Then build a church if there's some money left

From lying on the beach

The same colour blood just pass through our veins and tears taste the same when they splash on your face. Cant separate and still carry the weight, gotta heal get away from the fear and the hate. Gotta shake free from them chains, you see what remains, just a human being at the end of the day.

RE: Is there "atheist" music?
In Melbourne The Atheist Choir sings at various venues including The Unitarian church. They sing Christian Hymns with the words changed thus ridiculing Christianity.To me, as an agnostic, this seems a pretty immature and pointless act, besides they all sing out of tune.

Discuss,argue,or simply ignore.
Personal abuse is a cop out.
