You have your frauds mixed up.

Catholic priests claim that evolution is TRUE and scientific. They often state that although the creation of the world is not 'scientific,' evolution is in accordance with it.

Christians (that is, not Catholics) on the other hand, believe that creation is NOT scientific, but MORE scientific facts align with creation 'ism' than evolutionism.

Either way, I agree with you, although I have reservations.

[myguitara10]

you remind me of a priest telling the village how bad it is to like rock and how creationism is actually science. Who gives a crap whether he's good or bad? if people listen and like him, how does that affect you? You need to love music for yourself... and clearly this crazy guy does, so I give him props for it.

Never listened to Trane or Sonny? It's a different world man. Music goes way deeper than you think.

[TWENTIETHCENTURYBABY]

Heard of John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins and Charlie Parker but never listened to them before, just listened to Charlie Parker and I see what you mean. Huge difference, still like Andrew Beal though in his own way he's O.K.

[varfordogjesus]

I understand what you mean but your way of expressing this isnt very smooth. Sometimes its just enough to play and have fun. And i cant see anything wrong in that. Is it our thing to judge what people should or shouldnt like? "This isnt the way a saxophone should sound". I mean, there is no way a saxophone "should" sound. And what do you know about Andrew Beals intentions?

[Saxyman14]

Those were original, and they were great at what they did. Sometimes people get famous just because they're weird (William Hung, GWAR, and so on.)

I think you're going about it backwards. Music should be made as one's unique approach to expressing themselves, you make music that you yourself like, and if other people happen to like it, that's a plus I guess. If you make music you don't like just that people will like it, you get pop, where everything is bland and emotionless and sounds the same.

[varfordogjesus]

So you actually mean that Andrew just picks up his instrument and blow in it with no intuition at all? He isnt the best, so what. He plays and people like what they hear. Are you the one who judge if people should like it or not? Fact is that esasy made music is often the best if its made with alot of feeling. Look at Jan Johansson:s "visa från utanmyra", Jimi Hendrix "foxy lady" etc. You like what you hear, other what they hear. Poeple gets famous cos other poeple like what they hear and see.

I think that's enough, thanks for that, will take a look.
