Yup, and I still deal with that bashing today. A couple of days ago I was chatting with someone on MSN, apparently a big Creed hater. I tried to tell him to check out the awesomeness that is Alter Bridge but all he would keep saying was that they were Creed 2.0 and that Creed sucked. And of course he had to bring up the whole Christian band thing and Stapp's supposed "Jesus" poses.

He wasn't even willing to give AB a try based on that stuff, yet he was plugging artists like Breaking Benjamin and Ben Folds. I get annoyed with the bashing for liking bands like Creed, but I'm used to it by now and I don't let the media and critics determine what I listen to.
