i read this article before. the author advice christians not to
listen too much of secular music.
in a way i agree, and disagree la.
i agree that music does affect us in some way. we feel more
violent when we listen to heavy metal etc. and we feel more calm
when we listen to soft instrumentals.
so when we listen regularly to songs about broken hearts,
unrequited love, hopelessness.. "in the end, it doesn't matter.."
blah blah.. we're filling ourselves with negative feelings, and it
does affect us in some way.
on the other hand, the writer advice christians to listen more
worship songs, songs of hope, songs of joy, songs of peace.
i disagree that we should avoid them la, it's pretty impossible
too. but nowadays i just very automatically listen to worship
songs. the world's depressing enough as it is, it lightens my heart
to listen to songs of hope and joy instead. just can't stop =)
also. i think it's abit harsh to label them as satanic. why do i
feel like i mentioned all these b4?
