Bono Chrisitan?

I’ve been researching this Bono Christian question. (My friend Andre is gonna kill me) I first ran across this article which chronicles the whole u2 Christian phenomenon. This was the most significant statement I found.

In "1994's PopMart tour featured an intermission sequence in which a transvestite's genitals were displayed on stadium monitors for several minutes."


Just in case you are still wondering if bono is a Christian here is an article in rolling stone magazine (November 3, 2005), this is only and excerpt and just in the excerpt you will find

Here's an excerpt:

"What is your religious belief today? What is your concept of God?

If I could put it simply, I would say that I believe there's a force of love and logic in the world, a force of love and logic behind the universe. And I believe in the poetic genius of a creator who would choose to express such unfathomable power as a child born in "straw poverty"; i.e., the story of Christ makes sense to me."


I would say that Bono is Spiritual (and confused) but all signs point to non-Christian. What I find ironic is how are Christians are still latched on to him? Ive found several articles deifying him in Christianity Today. But if he were a pastor using the same language and having the same views he would be dismissed immediately. Dont get me wrong the music is still great, but thats not whats up for debate.
