U2 is used more than you think

U2 has some good songs with arguably Christian themes, but they are not 'worship' per se. No one would sing "Pride (In the Name of Love)" in a church service would they?
KMK- Pride in the name of Love is used and has been used...one very large seeker church in my area has used it..it was justified (by them) by pointing out that the song refers to Christ..."one man come he to justify" "one man betrayed w/ a kiss".. and I've seen Sunday blooday Sunday" used and "Elevation" and "40" a Psalm as well.
Not endorsing...but U2 is used more than you think.
