Real easy.... (etc.)

You did not answer my very direct questions. Just in case you overlooked them or have difficulty comprehending, let me repeat those questions.

Question 1: What chord progressions are secular and which ones are Holy?

Question 2: which metronome settings are secular, and which are Holy (in other words, what beat is sacred/ what is not)

Question 3: which instruments are blessed and which are evil (what about that saxophone?)

Question 4: By the way, Martin Luther's "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" is to the tune of an olde German bar song... does that make it EVIL?

Note that I did not reduce the font size on question 4 this time so you should have no difficulty seeing it.

You are making a point about what is and what is not Christian. You are specifically discussing music. These DIRECT questions pertain to what makes music (well, except for Question 4 which calls for your opinion, of which you seem to have many.) You are maintaining that it is not the lyric content but the beat, the instruments, and the other peripherals that determine what is and what is not sacred. Music is a series of chord progressions with a certain rhythm (without those basics, it wouldn't be music..). Based on your criteria and thus disregarding the lyric content, please now directly answer these simple questions dealing with what makes music music. I and I'm sure other musicians that are reading this thread would like to know so that we do not fall into the sin of secularism.

I gave you an answer and it’s what I believe. If you don’t like it too bad.

And you are also a liar, Luther did not write that from a bar tune. Here’s the proof because apparently other liars like you have tried to pass off this lie before:

Done with you too, liar.
