I completely agree with you on that Kyle, but I don't believe one should completely cast it out the window.

Just as dating is not in and of itself evil, so too music in and of itelf isn't evil. It's the thought and actions that arise from them which are sinful. There is a fine line between just listening to music, and then heading off in the direction of becoming all sipritualistic. I gave up dating because I don't believe that the baggage that goes along with dating is pleasing to God. I don't believe that it is even possible to date without sinning in some respect. Now I need to read "Boy Meets Girl" by Josh Harris to see how I can court without sinning when the time is right!

I used to do Karate as a kid. There are also connotations associated with Karate. Many people questioned my parents judgement when I was sent to Karate. Because there is a stigma attached to it, people think that it should be discarded completely. The Karate dojo I attended had no spiritual nonsense at all. Same principle applies here

Anyway, to get back on track... I listen to Enya music. I have no problem with it at all. But I do agree with what you say Kyle. My parents have told me that if one can listen to music, and purely enjoy it as a blessing from God, giving Him thanks for the people's talents, then it is a good thing. And I honestly think that especially a Christian can do that. I mean, I am not going to give up walking in my garden and going on nature drives because a group of people have resorted to naturalism. I won't start worshipping trees by relaxing in my garden! Hehe

Sincerely in Him,
Dave
