I have to agree. On an earlier post some months back I was arguing for contemporary Christian music. That was before I attended an outdoor concern. The music was so loud we had to buy earplugs which they happily sold for $2. Not only that but the few times some of the artists would talk I questioned their scriptural understanding. It was one of the worst experience I encountered and really changed my perception of Christian music.

Sorry, but I cannot see how sitting in an audience with ear plugs on as loud music for which you can't understand the words brings glory to the Lord. Give me the old hymns any day. I'll even take the Gregorian chants.

"If it's too loud, you're too old." Kidding, of course.

Audiology is going to be a growth industry sometime in the next 10-20 years as my generation pays its dues for loud rock concerts and walkmans.

Still, it's not a moral issue, but an issue of taste. Christians do poorly when they confuse the two.
