Anyone can pick out something they don't like out of an entire genre(s) of music.

But some of it is very good, very worshipful, and well worth holding onto while it impacts.....whether a year or a 1000 years.

The homily has been preached by some great preachers and some lousy ones. You don't ax it because of the bad ones.

That’s the problem, much of the modern music used, at least in my parish, seems to sacrifice the worshipful for the entertaining. Some pieces will, with out a doubt, stand the test of time. Those pieces will stand because the are worshipful, beautiful and timeless. Sadly, much of what we hear today does not add to the Mass. It’s a distraction and not a useful form of worship.
