U2: Christian Band

Just a few hours ago, I happen to come across a report about U2, stating that it's a Christian band. I read the entire article because I also had this suspicion in my brain before. One thing that also convinced me is who the source of the material is—a newly ordained Catholic priest. Their song Vertigo seems to have spiritual insight: in this world there's no firm ground to place our feet, we become dizzy. Father Rutten (the source) noted... "that's how they describe the modern world." Later in the song, Bono sings: "Your love is teaching me how to kneel." It's the idea that "in the midst of the chaos or the confusion or the vertigo, you can find some stability through faith," again quoting the source. U2, with lead singer Bono (short for Bono Vox, Latin for good voice) first came into fame in the 1980s, and continue to perform these days. Bono or Paul Hewson was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1960. Scripture (Matthew 7.17-18 RSV) says, "...every sound tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears evil fruit. A sound tree cannot bear evil fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit." Perhaps it is well known that Bono has done a lot for many people in poor countries, including debt relief. U2 is really bearing good fruit which somehow confirms the report.
