For example, is it acceptable or even possible to listen to pagan "head-banging" music Monday-Saturday and in one's quiet time approach God where choirs of angels sing music that extols His majesty and holiness with these tunes still floating around in one's brain?

I tried to make the same point about religious movies from Tozer's article about the "imaging" of God's Word and words in Scripture. The fact is that modern music is pronounced and unavoidable in nearly all Hollywood movies. This is true also for much of television. Some here have said that this was "Adiaphora" and a possible assault on Christian liberty.

I'm sorry but I can't seem to be able to distinguish the difference between these three categories of movies, television and secular music for private amusement and enjoyment? Why should properly discerned secular music for private listening be condemned as unchristian and the rest remain "things indifferent"? Might there be personal prejudices involved here? I know that I am prejudice, as I personally see a much greater threat to Christians and the Christian witness in movies such as "The Passion of the Christ" or "Jesus of Nazareth" than I do in just about ANY music.

As for "Holy Hip-Hop", I'd rather take a beating than listen to a single bar or word.
