But I think the music itself is spiritual and conveys message that communicates on a different level.

Ah - here we are, with what my husband (a mature Christian with a doctorate in music) laughingly refers to as The Demon Backbeat™. I had hoped people were past that notion, but it's obviously alive and well.

The Demon Backbeat™

Just as an aside, why do so many white church-goers clap out of beat? I mean, why can't a Methodist put a little soul in his soul...?

Please explain how you think the idea of Demonic music is a laughing matter.

Do you believe the "notion" of the Devil is a myth?

Perhaps you think the realm of music is immune from Satan's influence?

The above statement of yours explains why you take the liberal position you do on ALL musical styles being acceptable means of preaching the Gospel message.
IMHO you are very naive.

And the fact that you didn't find a problem with "fleshy rhythms" shows that you are not very familiar with the New Testament.
