Amy Lee speaks about "the Christian thing"
CONTROVERSY around mainstream band Evanescence and their brief association with the Christian music industry was touched on in US trade magazine Billboard for 16th September when Amy Lee was asked if she considered Evanescence a Christian band. She responded, "Can we please skip the Christian thing? I'm so over it. It's the lamest thing. I fought that from the beginning; I never wanted to be associated with it. It was a Ben thing. It's over. It's a new day."

I don't think that she is denying God. I think that she is just trying not to push her religious beliefs on anyone else. She doesn't want to prevent other people from listening to their music because of the Christian label being put on them.
