My point is, which you don’t seem to grasp, is if you simply add a religious component into something secular, it is still secular. It’s secular with religion mixed into it.

If something is worldly, it’s worldly. Trying to pass it off as holy because there’s some religion in it doesn’t take away the fact it’s still worldly.

Poison mixed with honey is still poison. How much honey would you add to the poison before you’d feel safe eating it?

Per your other example, if you started with a pure jar of honey (something holy), how much poison (something worldly) would you add to it before you wouldn’t eat it?

And thus we are back to you needing to definitively define what makes music Holy instead of skirting around the issue.

Good night.

So, adding scripture to secular music makes it secular? Does adding scripture to secular paper make it secular also? Where can we get this Christian paper from? What trees produce Christian paper? What about the ink?/s
