Seem like making music for God, you would put more effort or professionalism into the song.

Currently the only two Christian bands I've heard are Skillet and Mercy Me, and much of Skillet's song are not totally centered around Christianity.

It seems like there are alot of Christian bands or band member in secular generes.

Is it just bad a genre to avoid?

Or do all the good musicians generally move onto bigger and better things while the worse stay in Christian genres as they have an audience that has to listen to it whether they like it or not, in church?

There's a huge amount of excellent Christian classical music, partly because the Church (or people who wanted to be in good with the Church) could afford to pay for someone like Mozart or Bach or Handel to write it. And there's also great Gospel music from people who just had to sing their soul out, that's Christian music too. Sure, some Christian music is plodding, either because it's written for everyday folks to be able to sing, or because congregations are too charitable to criticize mediocre performers. And some bands, when they grow as musicians, also grow beyond the boundaries of Christian music. But to dismiss the whole genre is a bit much.
