"Is God so desperate to communicate with mankind that he would use this kind of music?"

He was desperate enough to die a messy, butcherous death on filthy wooden poles.

There is NOTHING sinful, vulgar or obscene about the way Christ sacrificed Himself for our sins.

And there is nothing about His death on the cross that justifies compromising the Gospel message with worldly decadant music.

So, during Medieval times, when they wrote lots of Hymns and stuff for the church, they did it in the popular music of the time (normally found in pubs, taverns, inns, whatever) - which was decadent and worldly.

Guess we can't even sing the old stuff, lest we be "compromising the Gospel message" eh?

If the Gospel message can be compromised, then God isn't all that powerful is he ?

It was plenty "vulgar" to the devil. He was thrust out of heaven on his, well, keister.

A nice sanitary cross, you will never see.
