@iwamoto – Since life is built through fairy tales and myth, I think we should accept that they influence the arts (along with everything we do).
My problem with Christian rap lies in not what it’s based upon, but its intention and attitude. Sometimes it seems to be trying to convert people and show them that the Christian way of life is better than all the rest.
As a side note, I also feel uncomfortable when musicians stop discussing Jesus’ life reasonably and just say “love Him” or “trust Him” or “worship Him” in their music. But that is just a personal preference.
