Stryper Never Made It to Saudi Arabia

One of the most disturbing things I have learned while reading Lawrence Wright's book The Looming Tower: Al-Qaeda and the Road to 9-11 is that if Osama Bin Laden heard music, he would literally plug his ears, and he declared that "music is the flute of the devil."

    If Stryper had reached a larger audience, maybe there would be more peace in the world. To Hell with the Devil!

    A more astute, clever expression would be one that didn't describe music by use of a metaphor that includes a musical instrument. Thanks a lot, bin Laden.

    You should open a school for evil-doers.
