re accessatlanta.com :
"... Other songs refer specifically to Jesus, God and the failures of the church. Garrett said writers from rock magazines to blogs have noted the importance of spirituality as a main driver of U2’s music. The rejection of organized religion is reflected in many young Americans, which in polling have described themselves as not religious, but definitely spiritual. "Churches have used that to draw in people. "The Episcopal Church has created a service called a U2charist, in which the band’s music is featured and offerings are taken to be given to eradicating poverty and disease. Other churches have adopted the service." |
