Three members of the band (Bono, The Edge, Mullen) profess to be [[Christianity|Christians]]. Early in the band's career, the three worshiped regularly, though it is not known if the band has maintained such levels. Specifically, the band's ''October'' album has many references to God. Adam Clayton, who is an [[atheist]], stated that during the recording of ''October'' he felt a bit isolated from the group, but has not since. However, in addition to regularly using vulgar language, U2 has made statements denying that Jesus is the only way to salvation.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkozK_uNMjs Bono Said WHAT About Jesus?!] ''Living Waters -- YouTube''.
