You could almost say that the first 6 Kansas albums were Kerry Livgren's (at least the songs he wrote)  spiritual search.  His choice was Christianity which was kind of preachy in the 80's but has backed off a bit since.

Well, I don't know. If it's not in you to yearn for that, then hey no problem. There's other ways to stimulate the mind.

Daniel Gildenlow was a 'special guest' on Transatlantic's European tour, filling in thin areas on vocals, guitar, keyboards, and percussion.  Not the same as "being in a band" with them, I'd say.

Yes, Daniel is an official member of the Flower Kings since Adam and Eve, and was a special guest from Unfold The Future onward.  Neal Morse is not a Flower Kings member, though.

On either the Transatlantic DVD or the Flower Kings DVD (not sure which, both were stolen from me ), Daniel is shown giving the "devil horns" while kneeling and sneering.  Which is funny, and almost adorable, but would that really be tolerated in a band with as much 'religious focus' as you're implying?

What do you mean the "devil horns"?

Do you mean the sign Ronny James Dio's Grandmother Invented?

Yes, that.    And yes, I'm being silly, but Roine's gone on record saying they aren't a religious band, what more needs to be said except for how amazing they are?

Not in the least!  Did you listen to the LYRICS of the album?  The title track, Adam & Eve, is about relationships between men and women developing over time!  "He looked at himself like some kind of porn star", a Biblical reference?    Eve was referred to as being "dressed like a hooker", and Adam crossing the lines between "make love and rape".  He simply used the names as a reference to men and women.

Have you read the lyrics to that song? Those are the opposite of religious I believe.

My conclusion:  It's not religion or God ruining prog, it's people who pass judgement about music WITHOUT KNOWING A DAMN THING ABOUT IT.  

Agreed, Cygnus?
