| "Are you saying christians don't view porn? God knows I do" Christians don't view porn, if they are about obeying God. If you said in a church "I watch porn" People wouldn't shock about it only because you do so, but if you claim to be a Christian. Self-righteousness is burning bridges. | |

| This was the very first zao song I ever heard, and I love it! It makes me so mad when people ridicule them because of the meaning though. I know plenty of good Christians who view porn, but I don't think less of them. | |

| I was at their show last week and Dan took time to explain what this song was about, so this is straight from the horse's mouth. It is in fact about a porn star who got in a car wreck and could not live with the way she looked in the mirror after the accident and scared her face, she decided to put a gun in her mouth and pull the trigger. For all of you out there who think this some how endorses pornography, did you read the lyrics? Does it sound like her lifestyle and occupation were good things? Clearly this is NEGATIVE commentary on pornography, and Dan also said at the show it is a criticism of MTV and others that preach to us how to look. And yes, Zao is a Christian band. Big deal. | |

| ALLRIGHT!! Zao is from my town! The REAL Zao! The original members all knew my brother! He knows for a fact that this song is about a girl that he knew was in a crash and they couldn't use the Jaws of Life to save her so she died underneath the car in a pool of her own blood!! | |

| Yes, everybody knows that they are a band, and that they are christians. Just because they're a Christian band doesn't mean they preach in every song. That would just be annoying. Are you saying christians don't view porn? God knows I do | |

| umm, you guys are both wrong. Yes, they are a christian band, no, this song doesn't mean they're into porn, although it is possible that members of the band struggle with that area of sin, a lot of guys do. AnimalsCage, I'd like to point out that they're not IN THE CHRISTIAN MUSIC INDUSTRY anymore because when they came out with Liberate, stupid people like you were pharisees and said that they weren't "christian enough" because of their image. Straighten out, buddy. They were singing about the things that the world does to people, and how being a porn star left her empty and unfulfilled "look inside the broken shell to see the broken heart" that's the real point here. Don't act like just because they're christian they're going to sing happy things or sponsor a "prayer of jabez" compilation cd | |
