This is a big secret. please do not tell anybody, okay? I got ahold of one of those music relics, a 33 1/3 LP of monks chanting psalms, when i was a teenager. Loved it. Really moving. Also, and this is a secret too, I like that Easter song, He Lives! Christ Jesus lives today. I don't beleive it, but I am stirred by the words, the rising and falling of the voice that dares to reach for those high notes, perhaps the sentiment even.
eeew war and religion, onward xtian soldiers, god on our side, mandated by god, shudder
I don't think I'd go to the mat on this one
me neither, but it still bugs me. It bugs me that there is not anywhere near equal exposure to other religions and belief systems, and that Christianity is effectively endorsed by the school, teachers, music. |
