No. You don’t get to decide that some secular pop song has sacred meaning. It may mean a lot to you, which is fine, but it isn’t sacred. You can tell yourself that it is sacred, which is fine if you don’t mind self-delusion, but don’t expect me or anyone else who actually knows and cares what constitutes sacrality to indulge your delusions.

Yes, I can because this is the United States of America. If you don’t understand what that means then you should better familiarize yourself with the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence. Religions are not the arbiters of a standard of the quality of meaning for us all. Furthermore, I believe that Faith comes by way of a liberal thought process while it’s the religions of the world that strive to be conservative, so as to preserve their ‘earthly’ influence and affluence.

meaningful and close to your heart, a song can be, but doesn’t mean it is appropriate for church
