Subject: RE: Atheists and Gospel Music
Great update on an old conversation!
What Joe isn't saying is that he is TERRIFIC at belting out those bloody lamb songs.
And, Joe, do you mean to say that that old barn at Ramblewood ISN'T sacred space when that gospel sing happens?!
I know what you mean, though. Isn't it funny how, when it comes to religion and church music we keep some close to the chest? As a former Catholic, and what my friend calls "christian with a small 'c'", I happen to love some of that sappy stuff PoppaGator is talking about. Very formative, but can't imagine singing it in public, though I'll sing almost anything else ; )
