I think at the same time, Zack would be upset at the number of people who are trying to push their religious views onto other people on the board, especially after watching his father's life be consumed by religion and ultimately causing him emotional breakdown.
Before I started listening to Z's music, I could probably be classified as a bigot, and I'm probably the farthest thing from it now, so he would probably be happy for the many people here who's lives his lyrics changed.
I don't think that everyone on this board is just concerned with his personal life. I, for one, was elated to see him out protesting against Arapio when I saw that nutcase interviewed on the Colbert Report.... that's not to say that I didn't read the "Zack has a fiance" thread or that I've never blabbered on about looks, but thats what makes me a fan, and I think Zack would be understanding to that.
Woah .. hold up right there.
There are a number of people on this board, and I do not believe anyone is pushing their beliefs on anyone. I am a Christian and state my beliefs and also my opinion about people who do not believe in Christ. I can certainly state my point of view and beliefs without forcing you to agree *or believe* what I believe. However, I will speak with conviction because that is how I see things. Other people here have been editing , deleting, and even changing posts that I post. I do not claim to speak for Z but I am sure an open minded individual *or maybe Jesus himself* would agree that this is wrong, it takes the place of cyber bullying, which is exactly what it is. People haphazardly claiming other people here are "mental cases" and nuts" and "need to be on medication is just plain brutal and this board has no saints on it when it comes to name calling. Personally, I am more offended by people treating other people like garbage, having no thought or consideration for their feelings, and all the name calling than by any post that claims "Z has looks my gosh! He's hot" However, you claim that he would be so understanding to the "he's hot" quotes,how can you be so sure? I suppose you think he would be accepting of the Christian bashing and name calling that goes on, again, are you sure? What makes you so sure? Do you really know? No, of course not, for all you know he's the most zealous Christian on the planet or the most crazy rebel ever or perhaps the most shallow guy that is aware of his charismatic charm and good looks or perhaps all three or none of the above. Point is, you do not know what another person is thinking or what they are like, and its not like he's here speaking his mind and his interviews are cryptic, ambiguous and rather elusive if you ask me, so its a mystery. you can only guess, but what I figure you are most likely doing i taking your own opinions and turning them into what you wish Z would say, because it would suit you.
Also, you say "reading the fiance thread and blabbering about his looks " make you a 'real fan' so to speak, really? Is that what constitutes a "real fan?" What makes you so sure ?
