Why?

So I have recently come across something that just leaves me wondering...Why?

I must admit, I did laugh hysterically but I was also left wondering if this was an attempt to be really funny and satirical or if there was some degree of seriousness to it.

Either way, this was a sad reminder for me of days long since past when I used to hang out in the Christian bookstore perusing the most current Christan music and I came across a chart that said if you like _____ (fill in your favorite secular music) you will probably like _____(insert Christian substitute). A sad reality hit me that it seems like the world is certainly influencing the "Church" but does not seem like the church is influencing the world much. (at least I have not seen such a chart on itunes...if you like Larry Norman you will probably like Eric Clapton)

So regardless of how funny the video is (i have watched it multiple times) Why Godtube? and Why such a silly little chart...and why the testimints (the "christian" breath mint next to the cash register at the Christian bookstore). WHY?

If you like "Jars of Clay" you'll probably like "crappy" music.
