Like I said he's welcomed to join the club and be saved but I meant that he won't exactly be able to help us spread the message... they'd just whisper behind his back..

They might whisper behind his back, but face it -- Christians are scorned and ridiculed, to their faces, regardless of how exemplary a life they lead. It's always been that way, and always will, until the Marriage Feast of the Lamb.

I disagree. When we're truly repentant the change in our lives shines to others. That, in itself, is a testimony and example of a new life in Christ. Cooper is able to reach a population of folks many dare not meet up with. God has him in a fruitful place I believe.
In our church there are some formally hardened individuals who now profess and live a glorious life in Christ. No whispers behind their backs. :o)

If he has a good testimony, he can touch these hard hearts who speak against him. If his sincerity shows through, God can work through him. Just because he looks freakish may be just the thing that God can use to reach the kids (or adults) who go to the concerts. I praise God for Alice Cooper's redemption!
