Religious Taboo


Hipster Christians are a whole different sub-culture in their own right. I recently read an article in 'Vice' claiming that Christian hipsters were the latest craze. Now, you and me both know that this isn't going to last too long and it's simply a matter of time before the ALMIGHTY becomes too mainstream for these cool kids! "Hipster Christians are saving London"....apparently, bit of a LOLfest if you ask me. The impression you get from the author is that these Christian hipsters are by no means orthodox, they get “really drunk” at conventions and consider themselves a counter-culture in their own right. The aim of these young Christians is to improve on housing in their area, minimise violence and create a greater sense of community. I say give it a week and they won't be long about switching to Buddhism, seems right up their street. The group of individuals characterised in the article could not have hipster values more clearly marked all over them if they tried and it is only a matter of time before Christianity becomes too mainstream and they move on to something new. What do guys think? Give me some feedback....I was discussing with a friend the other day about the fact that when we were young it was the buff, 'jock' type that everyone wanted to be but now it's definitely geek chic. Everywhere you turn there's a so called hipster positioned in a shit cool pose, are they taking over or is it a dying trend? Share your views....peace out!
