“There is a difference between being secular and being ANTI-CHRISTIAN,” wrote Shane Pruitt, National Next Gen director for the Southern Baptist Convention’s North American Mission Board. The anti-Christian culprit he had in mind was not one of the many examples of male church leaders in Southern Baptist churches who abuse Christ by abusing “the least of these.” Instead, the mocker, according to Pruitt, is none other than Taylor Swift.
“I used to listen to Taylor, HOWEVER, I think now it’s time to reconsider,” Pruitt lamented. “As Christians, who are filled with the Spirit should we be entertained by, sing with, and expose our kids to lyrics that aren’t just different than what you believe, but are actually mocking what you believe?”
Pruitt is hardly alone in his criticism of Swift in the wake of her most recent album, The Tortured Poets Department. Christian nationalist worship leader Sean Feucht fussed: “Almost half the songs on Taylor Swift’s new album contain explicit lyrics (E), make fun of Christians and straight up blaspheme God. Is this the music you want your kids listening to?”
In addition to complaining about Swift, Feucht is also cashing in on her popularity by selling a “Jesus Christ: The Eras Tour” T-shirt on his website that looks identical to Swift’s Eras Tour T-shirt.
The popular Christian entertainment review website Movieguide jumped on the bandwagon as well, accusing Swift of mocking the power of prayer, denying God can change people, denying Christian sexual ethics, bashing Christians who evangelize, and practicing occult worship. With much of their review focusing on sexuality, they conclude: “The fact that one of the most popular and famous celebrities of her generation cannot find happiness reveals that living in the world leads to death while living for Christ and under his teachings leads to life. Unfortunately, Swift has chosen the path toward death and is reaping the fruits of her labor.”

Send these folks to live governed by Sharia law & see how soon they want out…
-controlling women
- absolutely no thought or political freedom
- (?) strict dietary mandates
- limited access to (‘outside’) information

Or they could just listen to different music.
Live and let live.

This is what really bothers them.
If she’s wasn't a SFW, they probably wouldn't wouldn't care.
But she’s prime grade—A #1 breeding stock in their closed world view, and she’s not only unapproachable and unattainable, she also rejects their beliefs and finds them disgusting and disturbing.

But priestcraft is perfectly OK in their minds. Hey, even grifting hypocrites need to eat. Lucky for him that his audience is comprised of some of the most gullible simpletons on the planet.

Isn't it great that in a free society Swift can express her opinions and that someone can reject them with theirs.
Yes it is, K. Long may it continue.
It seems like the same battles must be fought over and over. Fortunately, so far people do so.

There are a lot more people in the world that admire and respect Taylor Swift than they respect Southern Baptists or US Evangelicals.
