The click over to Colors was really unexpected. Not the demon music I had in mind at all. I figured it would have been Michael W. Smith or maybe Sandi Patty. The album art is a little confusing on this one. Is Joseph breakdancing while his brothers cheer him on, or have they just rudely shown him to the bottom of a well?

They did chuck him into a well before selling him into slavery.

But, yes, that song with its "Up With People" flavor and grandpa's reaction to it made me realize that there were no real foundations or objective standards behind the rhetoric I was being fed.

In a weird way, Grandpa taught me to develop my critical thinking skills and apply them to art. Doing so just didn't lead to his preferred outcome.
