Rock and Theology

Readers here may want to check out a relatively new blog, the Rock and Theology Project, which gathers (so far, two Roman Catholic) academic theologians who also play in rock bands for conversation about the interface between the two. Some of it is rather heavy going unless you're pretty far over on the philosophical theology end of the spectrum, but I expect some of you may be. Probably not likely to be much U2 content on a blog like that one, but if that's all you're in it for, you might want to read this comment on how "Bono regularly infuses rock with a theology of grace that captures the best insights into the paradoxical relationship between 'willing' and 'being' in the spiritual life." Or you may prefer "Five-Finger Discount: Augustine, Night Ranger, and the Delight of Transgression."
