Hmm- Perhaps I was a tad tetchy, you think? COmes of reading this thread for a week and trying to get past the nasty crap. I did think we were talking in an impersonal manner about living faith vs. meaningless ritual. And suddenly we seemed not to be talking about that at all. We once spent a long time here debating the performing of religious music in public schools. Being a musician, I strongly feel that the greatest music arose from the church-- in the same way Michael's charities may have--- they had the organization, the money, the patronage, the inspiration. ANd as our musical tradition is steeped in Western tone structure, we respond to that-- rather than say- the five tone scale, or the quarter tones which we can't even hear. But to me religious music is very much a part of the entire musical experience and history. And that's what I was getting at with prayer and football. Integral or not? I think not. But it's debatable I guess Oh well, I am sleepy. A duel would be nice. Run him through. Vivesect him. I feel like Guinevere. Where are the simple joys of maidenhood? Go Stars. This year I am a hockey fan. I can only handle one sport at a time.
