I'm sure there are some great Christian bands out there musically, but I'm not a fan of the message and thus can't get behind them.

There's nothing wrong with not enjoying something with a message you don't support. It doesn't make you whiny, or a baby, or narrow-minded.

Many people don't like racist or NS black metal for the lyrical themes, and that's perfectly okay, even though personally it doesn't offend me. Many people don't like all the gore/rape lyrics in a lot of grind music, and again that's perfectly alright, just like it's okay not to listen to unblack metal because you don't like the theistic ideology of it.

While many in this thread value music solely as a means of ear-candy, some of us enjoy it on other levels where the conveyance of issues that don't appeal to us would make it seem unattractive.

It's all subjective. If you want to listen to it, do it, if you don't want to listen to it, don't. That doesn't invalidate one way of thinking over another and shouldn't be used in an attempt to belittle anyone.
