I would like to start this post out by showing you some lyrics. The first will be Christian and the second will be secular.
The Christian
You could throw me in the fire
And I won’t be burned
For my faith is Your desire
And Your love endures
You could throw me in the prison cell
Shackle me up against the rail
But time and time again
My faith won’t fail
The Secular:
This was never the way I planned,
not my intention.
I got so brave, drink in hand,
lost my discretion.
It’s not what I’m used to,
just want to try you on.
I’m curious, for you,
caught my attention.
I kissed a girl,
and I liked it.
The taste of her cherry chapstick.
I kissed a girl,
Just to try it.
I hope my boyfriend don’t mind it.
It felt so wrong,
It felt so right.
Don’t mean I’m in love tonight.
The first is by woman called Katy Hudson and the second is by a woman called Katy Perry. The catch: they are the same person. Yes that is right, Katy used to be a Christian song writer before she made the big time singing a song that I believe to be very immoral.
What could cause someone to fall from grace so hard? I looked her up on Wikipedia, and it says she grew up with a pastor for a father and he forbid her to listen to Secular music. This does not necessarily mean she grew up under spiritual abuse, but seeing as she is now in the place that she is; would this not be a reasonable presumption?
I would be interested in hearing more about Katy’s religious experience from anyone that has information, please leave a comment if you know anything.
