So was it multiple accounts? and if so, are we to bid farewell to this thread?

You have yet to provide any authoritative or logical set of proofs to back your position. You have instead claimed repeatedly that everyone is wrong, you're right, and everyone against you needs to reform their sinful behavior and thoughts, and resorted to ad hominem. Your sole argument is based on personal experience, yet you reject everyone else's personal experience. How is this equitable?[/quote]

I thought it was heavy metal? Or rap?

<sarcasm>Frankly, I think listening to Yanni makes you a minion of Satan. Only the evil one could inspire music so ego-centric, lifeless and vapid.</sarcasm>

So ... what is the actual policy on MSNs? It would be nice if there was a uniform policy and enforcement.

there are psychological and biological reasons for Monoxide's misconception about techno.

-the fast rhythm can affect a person by steadily increasing various bodily functions like their heart rate and chemical levels, like adrenaline. sort of like preparing yourself for an important event, like a race. any fast paced music can do this, even a fast paced opera, marching band, or blowing across the top of a big jug. you can probably get the same effect by sitting in silence and thinking of something stressful for a few minutes.

-there was a study done on drivers, where fast paced music made them drive more aggressively, which in turn made them more dangerous than drivers who listened to slow music, on average.

-loud rumbling noises like those made by bass drums stimulate the response of the body in the same way. in nature, a loud rumbling sound can indicate the danger of an earthquake, volcano, falling rock, a big predator, or something else that causes an animal to immediately become alert of danger. in other words, "fear". for us, this "alert-mode" or "fear-mode" can be enjoyable, just like a rollercoaster or anything else thrilling that people enjoy doing.


combine these two aspects and yes, you can have a person who is more stimulated and more eager to um.. dance around and jump up and down.. mosh in a pit.. engage in medieval battle.. march around the walls of Jerusalem.. row a boat.. or even fornicate.. but hopefully we now know why we can't blame techno when a teenager has the urge to hump someone's leg because he hears "What is love?" playing on the radio..

:hehe: I noted earlier that I like to listen to it while I drive.... and I DO tend to have a bit of a lead foot. But its not the techno. I have a lead foot when listening to NPR (now who's minion am I?) and classical or rock or pop or rap (etc.), too.

So the entire genre of music is condemned because of a few videos?

You're not going to convince anyone using that sort of (anti)logic.

praying the Rosary everyday, especially when i drive, is like kryptonite to my lead foot and any road rage that may occur. if i find myself getting mad at another driver, i know it's because i haven't prayed yet. that and usually the sight of my rosary on the rear view mirror really lays the guilt down. that and leaving early usually makes for a very peaceful drive, whether it be rush hour in downtown los angeles or new york.

in a perfect world we would all either be driving silently, or listening to gregorian chant or a spiritual talk, but in reality many of us can live a decent life while listening to many types of fast paced music. all in moderation. if you happen to have a severe case of "road rage", then perhaps you might want to stay away from such types of music, including techno. the rest of us can happily listen to "[url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7uswm7VTmY"]Flight of the Bumblebee[/url]" without being a real danger to ourselves or others. all in moderation.

many of us grew up listening to different types of music. many of them aren't the most beneficial, or are down right threatening, to our spiritual growth. it's not practical to expect people to quit their musical preferences cold turkey (in one day), unless they happen to be of such a strong will that enables them to do so. i happen to be one of the fortunate ones who was first introduced to a Christian song that sounded similar to what i liked, and over time it has become my main preference, along with chant and worship music.


i think my point is that it is more of a spiritual growth issue that will cause a person to change their musical habits over time, and it's probably not the best idea to condemn someone's entire genre of music and expect them to understand and convert. i know some people who listen to hardcore heavymetal music, with some even bordering on satanic and literally sounding like sounds from hell. there isn't as much rhythmic bass like in techno, but more of frightening screaming and screeching guitars. fortunately i can see progress in their spirituality and hopefully they will see how certain music may not line up with their current state of morality and spirituality. so just encourage them to work on God and the changes will naturally flow from it.

also remember that not everyone is at, or may ever reach, the spiritual level you are at and may not hold the same values as you do. there will always be someone "holier" than you that can point out the "satanic", or more appropriately, "non-spiritually-beneficial" elements in the things you do and enjoy.

LOL! This is one of the sillyest(sp?) things I've heard so far reading through these forums. I'm not sure how music can be satanic...picturing satan sitting next to a songwriter going "No No..Use the word F..." lol

This sentence alone - "As I sit here and listen to Fedde Le Grand's "Put Your Hands Up For Detroit" I feel the urge to fornicate.", shows your own weakness to control yourself. When I listen to this song (which i love), i just feel like dancing and being happy.

"Besides, trancish music builds the foundation of the homosexual culture, which is becoming mainstream."

Again omg....quite an ignorant, arrogant statement.

You need to open your narrow view. Yes gays like this music, but they also like rock, country, classical. Maybe we should stop these from being listened to as well?..

The greatest thing about music is NO ONE has control over it, and it can be made to mean anything, good or bad. If you don't like the bad, ignore it and stick with the good.

Better than coming out with these ridiculous comments.

<<< Is a fan of Techno Music

And an abuse does not negate the abuse.

Have you seen the effect oxygen has on evil men? Have you seen the way they use it? It is so sad sometimes.
