A Culture of Death...

I've noticed over the past few years that our society has become increasingly inundated with images and music that involves death.  There has become an unhealthy obsession with this grim concept and lately I have been wondering why...  Every song mentions death or dying EVEN when the very concept of the song has NOTHING to do with it.  Younger (and trendier) popular folks wear skull and cross bones on several articles of clothing, in the name of what is "cool".

Some might say, what's wrong with that?  To them, I would say.... be careful what you allow to manifest in your life.  On the surface it may mean nothing... but every trend isn't a good one and this is one I feel very uneasy about.

I challenge you all to become an observer and watch the trends.... where do you think they're going?

Just a few examples....

"You be killin' em"

Listen to all the ways he describes how he'll die for his love

"Suicidal...Suicidal"

So the world is going to end, what should we do?  Party.  :-(

World ending again.... Party, AGAIN.

Til Death do we party....

I have heard plenty other songs that are promoting this "culture of death" or showing blatant disregard for life. 

Listen around for yourself...
