@sleepwalker65, woah nelly! It is not I who consider Rock ’n’ Roll profane (even if it is, I STILL love it. Well, some of it, anyway), for gosh sakes. That term was used to make a point---that Little Richard, Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, other Rockabillies felt a conflict between their upbringing and spiritual beliefs, and their involvement in Rock ’n’ Roll, which the Church considered The Devil’s music, and which IT referred to as profane. I thought that was obvious ;-) .

I am always fascinated by the words "praise" and "worship". If there was indeed an almighty deity, he wouldn't need or desire anyone's praise or worship. We can all love different types of music at different times as our moods dictate. The idea that one type or another has a divine stamp of approval is just silly.

He doesn't need it, you do to learn what pure love is which is not found in moods .

schubert- you are 80+ years old stupid!  I would rather die than give up music, even for one day.  Music has filled my life since I was 3,  Last week I performed for 350 people at the AJU university and tonight I was the videographer of a performance many talented performers including Tovah Feldshuh, Hila Plitman, Emily Bear, Zinovy Goro and Mark Kashper together with the 25th anniversary of the 50 member Los Angeles Jewish Symphony (with many dignitaries present) under conductor Dr. Noreen Green.   When your life revolves around music, you don't take a "vacation" from it.  Its in my lifeblood.  Its part of my culture and religion, music is always present at times of joy and grieving, happy and sad music.  But always music.
