he is a christian musician. he might be different from mainstream christian music, but almost every one of his songs has, on at least a deeper but discernible level, reference to his faith in christ.
many of his songs (which, in my opinion, happen to be the most beautiful) are overt professions: casimir pulski day, concerning the ufo sighting, for the widows in paradise, man of metropolis steel, predatory wasp, vitto's ordination song, etc...
most of his music does more than "scratch"

@baboonsunshine The person I was responding to implicitly claimed that singing in a song about how prayer doesn't cure cancer is the same as stating that one is an atheist.
I don't know about whether his first album reflects his personal beliefs, though he is a Christian.

@baboonsunshine Acknowledging that prayer doesn't cure cancer isn't even close to claiming not to be a Christian.
are the sufjan stevens a christan band?
They sound really good. The first time I heard them was on the OC

Sufjan's just one guy, not a band, and he is a Christian yeah, but while this influences and informs some of his music he's not *just* a Chrisitan musician, he writes songs about pretty much everything. Seven Swans is his most Chrisitan album, the rest of his stuff only really has snatches of it.

@ElDudeBrother He even claims to not be Christian in interviews for example Casimir Pulaski day he talks about going to bible study and nothing happening

@baboonsunshine I think the thing that "never happens" in Bible study is his friend getting better (i.e. getting cured of the cancer of the bone). Haven't heard of these interviews, any links/quotations?
