    Jevad is correct.

    FSF is what I like to call "popularly Christian"

    Just like Acceptance and MxPx.

    The members are mostly Christians and ally themselves with Christian labels, distributors, etc.

    But once it's not popular to be Christian - they're like "oh, we're not REALLY a Christian band . . . some of us are Christians, though"

    Most of these bands start out writing overtly Christian music but then become more 'mainstream weak-handed moralist' by way of their own values or (hopefully not) because of commercial pressures to distill their Christianity into something that sounds like moralistic new age crap that everyone can agree with.

    I met Chris once through some friends and at that time he was a really, really nice guy.
    Hopefully that hasn't changed.

    Even though he's kinda become a corporate whore, his music sucks and he's become the poster-boy for the current post-pop-punk-fat-15-year-old-gi... movement.

    and they're not Emo, so stop calling it that.
