Catholic Owned Radio Sustains "Catholic Values" With Depravity
WSOU 89.5 is a New Jersey radio station founded in 1948. It belongs to Catholic Seton Hall University which is under the authority of the Cardinal of Newark, and is run by Seton Hall students.Mere months after Bishop Theodore McCarrick became Newark’s new archbishop in 1986, WSOU changed its broadcasting format to hard rock and heavy metal. "The description of 'hard rock' hardly illustrates the depths of depravity to which this station has fallen," Michael Hitchborn writes on LepantoIn.org (August 17).
Never mind, on September 15, 2019, WSOU broadcast the song “Blood Eagle” which speaks about slaughtering Christians:
We come for war
King of the north and norse
With drums beating, screams repeating and the hammer force of Thor
Surrender not enough
The Christian seed will sing amongst the soil of trees.
Other broadcasts included the songs:
• “Hammer Smashed Face” which hails “violence as a way of life”
• “The Serpentine Offering” whose lyrics provide a ritual for giving one’s self over to total possession by the devil
• "Necromania" which says, "We love your virgin blood; Death is our drug"
• “Blacken the Cursed Sun” by the band “Lamb of God” with the following lyrics:
Then to live forever begging on your knees
No.
Can we still be saved?
Hell no!
Does your God hold a place for us?
Hell no!
Is there time to repent?
Hell no!
Will we rise from the dead?
Hell no!
Can these sins even be forgiven?
Hell no!
Is there still hope for us?
Hell no!
Two attempts in 1988 and 2001 to abandon the radio’s format failed. In 1988 a listener took his life with the lyrics of the song “Suicide Solution” in his pocket. Newark Archdiocese is now lead by the McCarrick offshoot pro-gay Cardinal Tobin.
