I was listening to flogging molly with my dad the other day, and felt that some of the stuff Flogging Molly was singing about were "Anti-God" or even "Satanic". I really don't want to believe it, but the words don't lie. Please try and give me facts that support my side, and maybe why some of the songs say what they do. I really need your help, or I can't go to their next show. Thanks

Some examples: "Swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o, Swing a little more, on the Devil's Dance Floor", So God how come every wrong's been done? With deals no Christ should allow,
Once the communist now the terrorist
With blood as thick as yours", "But nothing's unforgiven in the four corners of hell", "What savior rests while on his cross we die, Forgotten freedom burns
Has the Shepard led his lambs astray
to the bigot and the gun"

No they are not. The lead singer, Dave King, grew up in Dublin. Many of the bands songs are based on his life experiences.....including the religios tension between Northern & southern Ireland

Trick question. Flogging Molly IS God.

its all about how you take things. I dont think they're satanic. I mean, some things could be directed towards faith. maybe in one of the songs he was singing about someone he cared about who died. and he's mad at god

Maybe some examples of specific lyrics would help here

I'd take it is anti-religion or anti-IRA rather than anti-god. Most people that talk about the devil are christians.
