The New Neal Morse Appreciation Thread - Progressive Rock Music Forum

And I happen to think the lyrics of Yes are interesting and intelligent. Close to the Edge is so inspiring. I can same the same about Neal.

Roll along 2014!. Neal in Transatlantic. new album and tour.

Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.

And to those points...what albums/artists would be banned quicker by the general public?

Neal Morse or Canibal Corpse?

Really? Is anyone talking about banning Neal Morse albums?

That sort of brings to mind the phony complaints of a "war on Christmas".

As for Morse's albums, I enjoy his musical compositions immensely, but I find many of his lyrics lately to be ham-handed and tired. Religious and non-religious. But bad lyrics never stopped me from purchasing an album.

It was a question...not a statement and again to the general public. For example, are there more movies about death, evil, brutality, or religious movies with a good message?

I am asking a question not making a statement. I think it is easier for people to discuss or be comfortable with or not really have too much of a problem with discussing evil things......versus discussing religious things. So I think that is why there is so much dislike for Neal's subject matter on a lot of his albums....it may be uncomfortable for a lot of people.

It does not matter to me one bit how anyone feels, but I am just posing a question.

Very interesting to hear. I really wanna buy the Neal Morse Testimony book. Yes I've been a great admirer of Neal Morse and his music for quite some time now.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Also a new Flying Colors album is promised by the end of the year Big smile

Morse mentions Leviticus in ? - The Old Testament is packed with extermination apologist propaganda. Religious bigots are obsessed with vengeance and punishment (usually for women) - the original sin garbage is also misogynistic nonsense. Attack a scientists cherished theory/theorem and he will try to defend it with the facts by which the theory is based. Attack the irrational beliefs of the pious and you are likely to get physically attacked, because the religious loony is likely to believe that the "god" he supports wants all non believers to die or burn in hell....
Violence in society is disturbing - I always find it laughable that you can watch (as entertainment) a man sticking a meat hook through a woman's throat, but you can't watch (on mainstream telly) him sticking his erect penis into her.
It is religion that makes us so hung up about the fact that we are incorrigibly randy primates!!!
