Country Music Television (CMT) is EVIL!

by David J. Stewart

“There is a strong correlation between listening to country music and divorce, with divorce as the strongest cause of suicide.” —Scott Spiegelberg[1]

CMT Promotes Sexual Perversion!

In a word, CMT is disgusting, and it is certainly evil. No wonder the divorce rate is so high amongst those who listen to country music. Country music and divorce go hand in hand! CMT promotes some of the most vile, sensual, and lascivious filth in the world. Although their type of pornography may be acceptable with apostate Americans, it is sinful in the eyes of God. 

Jesus clearly taught in Matthew 5:28 that lusting upon a woman is adultery, "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." We read in 1st Timothy 2:9 that women are to dress in MODEST APPAREL, "In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array." The word "modest," means, "of good behavior."

Tight pants, open blouses, negligees, sensual poses, and professional photography make CMT a cesspool of iniquity. The only people who scoff at what I say are the adulterers, fornicators, whores and other godless reprobates. There are still Christians who love Jesus and want to live right, and they're not the women who strip 95% naked and sing country music. It is wickedness! God judge America!

CMT regularly features videos containing women with tight clothing, open blouses, women lying in bed, imprudent looks, sassy attitudes ... feminist to the core. Kellie Pickler is featured in one of the most risqué, slutty and sensual videos ever produced for CMT. GAC (Great American Country) is another slutty Cable/digital TV channel corrupting families with their immoral videos. The Bible teaches that lust is a sin and every female singer who uses lust to promote her music will be judged guilty and held accountable by God. The American people are so accustomed to such moral degradation that they don't realize just how wicked our nation has become. There were no cameras, TV's, videos, or pornography in Sodom and Gomorrah, yet they were so vile and wicked that God destroyed them with fire and brimstone. Genesis 13:13 reads, "But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly." How much more will America be judged for her great wickedness? Matthew 11:24 WARNS, "But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee." 

Americans have murdered 54,000,000 children through abortion. More lascivious smut and pornographic filth are produced in America than anywhere else. Americans account for 25% of the world's child-sex trade; yet, only comprise 5% of the world's population. The amount of sexual content on TV has DOUBLED since 1998. God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah as an EXAMPLE of what will happen to the wicked, "Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire" (Jude 1:7). America is next! While entertainers and industry tycoons continue to get rich, America's prisons are filling up with people convicted of committing sexual crimes. These sexual crimes are inspired by the lascivious filth of Hollywood, television, MTV, CMT, GAC, et cetera. Sin always begets more sin. America has become a cesspool of iniquity (where all the sewers meet).

We read in Proverb 7:10, "And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart." What is the attire of a harlot? It is the exact same mini-skirts, negligees, and sensual apparel that the godless women of CMT are wearing, who are helping to destroy families all across the world. Do you think this is a joke and I'm kidding? Little children are being sexually molested all over this world because of the LASCIVIOUSNESS caused by CMT, Playboy, Madam, Sports Illustrated, Hollywood, cable TV, Walt Disney, sensual advertising, and all the unethical companies who exploit sex to make profits. The average selfish ungodly person couldn't care less, whose god is their belly. Sex is worshipped in America. 1st Peter 2:11, “Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul.” America is a Godless nation. Very few born-again people exist anymore who truly love righteousness and hate evil. Our nation claims to worship God, while living in gross immorality. James 4:4 calls anyone who befriends the sinful world the “ENEMY” of God. Satan is working relentlessly to destroy today's youth, in an attempt to rid the world of faith in the God of the Bible.

You can't even watch the news anymore, or a commercial, without seeing some whorishly dressed (i.e., immodestly dressed) woman. Their excuse is that no one makes people watch particular TV shows; BUT, the human heart is desperately wicked (Jeremiah 17:9), and people are going to gravitate to such demonic filth. The cliché is an old one, but very true ... SEX SELLS! No wonder the Bible declares in 1st Timothy 6:10, "For the love of money is the root of all evil..." People will stoop to any level nowadays to make a buck. It's evil. Increased lasciviousness in society leads to more sexual sins and crimes, and the stories abounding in the news lately prove it. As Americans, we get what we deserve.

It's tragic. In the old days, people liked country music for the music itself. Nowadays they have to saturate everything with sex, sex, and more sex or it won't make lots of money. That's why they've got Willie Nelson singing homosexual songs. It's repulsive to the name of decency. If you think all the smut videos and half-naked women performing on CMT's videos are innocently having fun, then you are crazy. Such lasciviousness is one of the primary causes of divorce in America. Country music and videos can be very deceptive if you lose sight of reality. You hear beautiful music, see beautiful people, see beautiful places, and before you know it—you're comparing your boring, problematic, lackluster life to a fantasy. All of a sudden your wife isn't pretty enough, or your husband isn't as charming as the cowboy on TV.

So many people abandon ship, looking for greener pastures that rarely ever come to fruition. Planting some of your own grass might not be a bad idea. Isn't it amazing that 50% of Americans are divorced—and 95% of them claim there was no other way—it had to be done. Garbage! A man recently wrote me, telling me that he was divorcing his wife because he was wasting the best years of his life staying with her. What a sorry attitude! Is that all that marriage is anymore, just a sex partner? America is a sinfully proud and perverted nation! God deliver us from heathens like Dr. Phil, who advise many women to quit their marriages and move on. We even brag about our sins, spitting in God's face, arrogantly naming one of our cities ... SIN CITY! I tell you assuredly, everything that HAPPENS in Vegas is RECORDED in Heaven!

A different Defense of Marriage Act is needed

by Scott Spiegelberg

Chris Brooke has dug deeper into the Country Music Suicide issue.  Apparently, there is a strong correlation between listening to country music and divorce, with divorce as the strongest cause of suicide:

"The GSS figures report that 27.4% of country fans report marital disruption as opposed to only 18.4% of non-fans, and they're quite a bit more likely (61.8% to 40.2%) to have a gun at home, too, as Table Two, "The Relationship between Musical Preference and Having a Gun in the Home, 1993" clearly shows. But with the new figures they're using no longer suggesting a straightforward relationship between the amount of country coming through the radio and the tendency of whites to top themselves, they explore a different angle, suggesting that "country music might be associated with suicide through indirect effects, as well as interaction effects... For example, given its preoccupation with the travails of love, it is conceivable that country might be predictive of urban divorce rates". And, yes, a simple regression shows that "country music had the strongest relationship to divorce" and that "divorce, in turn, is the strongest predictor of suicide." My goodness. And among the divorced population itself, the authors hypothesize, those who like country music might be the ones more likely to kill themselves, as "divorced people would be the most apt to be receptive to the sad messages in such songs". Indeed."

It is clearly time for our intrepid Congress and Administration to protect the sanctity of marriage from the insidious effects of country music.  Sure, the defense of marriage is really a matter of states' rights, but can we really trust Tennessee to make the right choice and bomb Nashville?  Clearly a Constitutional Amendment is necessary.

The Effect of Country Music on Suicide

STEVEN STACK, Wayne State University | JIM GUNDLACH, Auburn University

This article assesses the link between country music and metropolitan suicide rates. Country music is hypothesized to nurture a suicidal mood through its concerns with problems common in the suicidal population, such as marital discord, alcohol abuse, and alienation from work. The results of a multiple regression analysis of 49 metropolitan areas show that the greater the airtime devoted to country music, the greater the white suicide rate. The effect is independent of divorce, southernism, poverty, and gun availability. The existence of a country music subculture is thought to reinforce the link between country music and suicide. Our model explains 51% of the variance in urban white suicide rates.

Sociological work on the relationship between art and society has been largely restricted to speculative, socio-historical theories that are often mutually opposed. Some theorists see art as creating social structure (Adorno 1973), while Sorokin (1937) suggests that society and art are manifested in cyclical autonomous spheres; and still others contend that art is a reflection of social structure ( Albrecht 1954). Little empirical work has been done on the impact of music on social problems.

While some research has linked music to criminal behavior ( Singer, Levine & Jou 1990), the relationship between music and suicide remains largely unexplored. Music is not mentioned in reviews of the literature on suicide ( Lester 1983; Stack 1982, 1990b); instead, the impact of art on suicide has been largely restricted to analyses of television movies and soap operas (for a review, see Stack 1990b).

In this article, we explore the link between a particular form of popular music (country music) and metropolitan suicide rates. We contend that the themes found in country music foster a suicidal mood among people already at risk of suicide and that it is thereby associated with a high suicide rate. The effect is buttressed by the country subculture and a link between this subculture and a racial status related to an increased suicide risk.

Country Music And Feminism

"Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness." —Proverb 30:20

Many of the women featured on CMT's videos are nothing less than feminist whores, home-wreckers! Anything for money! Lasciviousness wrecks homes! They're loud, sassy, rebellious, feminist, boisterous, flirty, imprudent, proud, etc. There's nothing more unladylike than to see a woman with a proud look, who is immodestly dressed, bellowing out some "country" song that sounds just like a rock concert. Is this what God wants women to be like? No!!! 1st Peter 3:5,6 states, "For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God ... Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement." 

Feminism is just like cancer, it spreads. The country music industry is greatly promoting the evil feminist agenda. Just like Eve foolishly convinced herself that disobeying God would be the best thing she ever did, feminists are going to learn the hard way that God will not be mocked. It is wicked, and God's hate it, when women sing about rebelling against their husbands, throwing him out, or divorcing him. This is just as evil as singing about disobeying God. Many of America's women have bought into the Devil's lie of feminism. Feminist women are a disgrace upon the United States. I received a letter this week from a woman who claimed to be a "Christian feminist." Sorry, there's no such thing! There's nothing even remotely "Christian" about rebellion, which is exactly what feminism is. Equal rights is one thing, equal authority is another. The wife is to OBEY her husband, just as Sarah called Abraham lord (sir). 

We are living in a selfish and rebellious generation, where people are quick to quit when the going gets tough, and move on. A wife who demands equal authority with her husband is a feminist. This was the exact same sin which Lucifer committed in Isaiah 14:14, "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High." Lucifer (Satan) had "I" problems. Notice that Lucifer didn't want to be greater than God; NO, he only want to be EQUAL. Satan deceived Eve with the same lie in Genesis 3:5, "For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." Satan told Eve that she would be AS GOD; not greater than God, but EQUAL. 

Feminism's main goal is equality of POWER. Sorry ladies, God has made the man the head of the house. You'll never have a Biblical marriage until the man leads, and the wife follows (1st Timothy 5:14). America is known around the world as a land of rebellious feminists. No wonder the divorce rate is over 50%. No wonder 50,000,000 growing babies have been murdered BY THEIR MOTHERS! I spoke with a man from Asia, who said that women in his homeland don't eat until the husband has finished eating. She waits on him. 

Women don't get away with feminism and rebellion in other countries like they do here in America. The elderly are respected in Asian cultures, unlike America. It all works together. A rebellious wife leads to rebellious brat children, which leads ultimately to a Godless society of spoiled brats like America. MANY of America's Christian women are also guilty of feminism, only obeying their husbands when they feel like it. This is a great evil in America, and a shame upon any professed "Christian" wife! God has no use for part-time Christians (Revelation 3:15-16).
 

Conclusion Of The Matter

There is nothing wrong with country sounding music, but the industry itself is evil to the core. The lyrics to many of the songs are pathetic and horrible. That reminds me of something funny I once heard. Do you know what you get when you play a country song backwards? You get your wife back, your job back, your home back, your truck back, your dog back, et cetera. CMT and the country music they promote glamorizes getting drunk, immorality, adultery, feminism, promiscuity, and other filth. 

It is tragic that the Bible belt is being corrupted by sensual Country music singers, like Taylor Swift who rolls around in her underwear on the floor in the video for her song, FEARLESS. No wonder America is such a cesspool of iniquity today. MTV is a hellhole of sexually suggestive filth. The video FEARLESS is evil and Taylor Swift is a disgrace to America. I pray for God to bring judgment upon this rotten, evil, filthy, nation. It is our only hope. Americans are so rebellious, hardhearted and stiffnecked that they will not repent toward God unless we are judged. Noah preached the righteousness of Jesus Christ for 120-years and not one person, NOT ONE, got saved. That's how wicked the world was before the flood. Jesus said that in the End Times the world would once again become as it was in the days of Noah (Matthew 24:37-38). We are living in demonic times. Sexual promiscuity is everywhere! And tragically, many of the culprits are professing Christians.

On the DeGeneres show, Swift spoke of her good “character.” What character? Women with good character don't lie down on the floor, roll around while wearing a negligee for some pervert's camera to film, and then put it on MTV for the world to see. That is exactly what her video, FEARLESS, is, and that's exactly what MTV is known for. Where are all the preachers in America? Am I the only one who gets mad over this stuff? Am I the only one who loves God? I know there are many God-fearing Christians remaining in America, who are sick of this filth in our nation; but unfortunately most pastors are mostly concerned about making more money. Get right with God!

In addition, just as the Rock 'N' Roll industry is known for showing it's allegiance to Satan, so are country music artists beginning to show their allegiance for Satan. This is why Dolly Parton promotes the Satanic Led Zeppelin band, and Johnny Cash promotes Glen Danzig, a known Satanist who blasphemes Jesus Christ. Why would Johnny Cash, a professed Christian, foolishly sing Danzig's songs? Danzig's logo is a picture of a demon strangling the Lord Jesus Christ while blood is coming out of Jesus' bulging eyes! Inside Danzig's album, Lucifuge, Glenn Danzig is shown wearing the cross of Jesus Christ — upside down — with a demon's head in the middle of the cross. 

Boldly written at the top is part of John 8:44 "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do." Glenn Danzig is a hard-core Satanist. CMT has been featuring Johnny Cash lately as if he's an American hero, and he is to many people. However, is this the sort of man who should be recognized as being great? Johnny Cash unequally yoked himself together with a Christ-blaspheming Satanist, promoting his songs. To learn more, please read...

PROMOTING SATAN!

"Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God." —James 4:4

Are you God's enemy by being a friend of the world?
