Well put Lucy.
To me, all people who hate Creed or think they are ripoffs of other bands, haven't listened to Creed enough to really hear or appreciate their music. All my friends in my dorm know I love Creed, and some just think they're "good" or "crappy." One guy even wanted to get me a shirt he saw that said "Even Jesus Hates Creed." Those are the type of people that are prejudice against people, races, religions, and whatever else mostly because someone else is and told them to. They haven't given anything a chance to see if they like it or not, and in my mind, if you don't know anything about what you are discriminating against, they have no room to talk.
I guess what it comes down to is:
People who like/love Creed = Smart.
People who hate/bash Creed = "Un-educated."
CREED FOREVER!
