From the second link on #7:

"Petra is an obscure group that sings religious songs to a rock
beat."

Interesting description.

In college we had a group come in and give a presentation in our dorm about backward masking. My friend bought it all. Then I took him down to the dorm's vacant radio station and played a couple of Tammy Faye Bakker's albums backwards. We had no trouble picking out various obscenities which obviously were our imaginations at work. Finally he "saw the light."

If only it worked that easily in evangelism. . .

Sitting up on the dashboard of my car!
