    Default Megadeth star credits Christianity...

    Ah, how I love a good redemption story.

    DAVE MUSTAINE: 'CHRISTIANITY SAVED ME, I WAS A BAD MAN'

    Heavy metal hero DAVE MUSTAINE has credited Christianity for turning his life around and making him realise he was "a weasel".

    The Megadeth star admits he wasn't a very nice person before he found God and he's keen to make amends for all his wrongs.

    He says, "Once I changed my life I thought, 'If anybody needed to become a Christian it was me because I was so bad.

    "I really am enjoying who I'm discovering myself to be. I don't really know what the future has in store for me but it's a hell of a lot different than it was.

    "I'm sure glad I didn't give up because there were some years where I just felt like the entire world was just disgusted with me. There were a lot of times when I thought the music business would be better off without me and I should go to peeling onions for a living!"

    Sounds like he grew up and opened himself up to more than one way of believing/acting.

    Maybe if he talks about it more it might get through to my cousins. We are all MegaDeth fans. Basically, because the band rocks.
    If we were as industrious to become good as to make ourselves great, we should become really great by being good, and the number of valuable men would be much increased; but it is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness; and i pronounce it as certain that there was never yet a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous." - Ben Franklin
