      I mean, in the church in general, like before or after service is over, I can't play metal while in the church building

        Maybe try and talk to people after Church instead of listening to music.

        In terms of music though. I think God would favour metal more than you think. Theres tons of Christian metal band, and the metal community seems really nice and active. I find that metal can be super inspiring sometimes.

        That being said every genre does something for someone. Not forgetting my main point, don't feel ashamed, but if you're at church I don't see why you'd want to get into your music. Be social!

          I agree with you. I think Hephaestus would favour metal.

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hephaestus

          I also see that you support people who believe in an ancient anointing ceremony.
          Would you please tell me what you know about this ceremony; the procedure and so forth?

        If they are going to be mad at you because of your music, they are morons. Go and find another church. It is just music... You don't even need to listen to christian bands in order to feel accepted, just listen to music that you like. I don't think a nice god would be mad at you for listening to metal either.

          I agree with you.

          I don't think that the deity Guan Yin would be angry with you. She is very compassionate.

            Please excuse the above, as there are no -ists or -isms in the Way of Tao, nor in the teachings of Gautama Buddha.

        I suspect you do it because you want to be respectful and are afraid of being stereotyped as a Satanist.

        If you want to listen to some more Christian, I highly recommend Fireflight. I'm very much a wary agnostic, but they discuss subjects that I don't think many other Christian bands do and they also happen to be good musicians (so I think).

        Try talkign to people after church as well if you feel up to it.... but don't expect too much.

        The biggest factor in me hating the first church I went to was that it seemed not to focus much on real-world issues and much more on converting people/encouraging them to behave in extremist ways ("healing", "talking in toungues" [read: utter gibberish].
        The women were awful, too.

          You have, twice, used a term which divide people who believe in the teachings of Abraham, from other people who also believe in the teachings of Abraham. This term also divides these people from people who have other religious beliefs, as well as dividing them from people who are not religious. The use of this term might be offensive to some people, whether they are religious, or whether they are not religious.

          Why are you creating division in society?

          Please describe the Physical properties of the spirit creature to which you refer.

          Please do not use -ists or -isms.

          Thank you.

            I have no idea how I'm creating division of any sort.... I'm sorry you feel offended but I'm almost tempted to ask you what your problem is.

              How you are creating division in society, is that you have thoughts, ideas or concepts in your mind, of terminology which creates division among people who all believe in the teachings of Abraham, as well as creating division among people who have other religious beliefs and people who are not religious.
              You then used these thoughts, ideas or concepts to input the keys on your computer, and you then sent these divisive messages around the world.

              The use of -ists and -isms also support and contribute to divisions in society.
