Thread Name: Does Religion Deny Music to Children?
Subject: RE: Religion denies music to children?
There is nothing new about this issue. Back in the 1940's (yes, I'm old) I was sent off for the summer to live with a Pentecostal grandfather. I had just started piano lessons, and the preacher of the church gave me permission to practice my scales and lessons on the church piano. After just two days, the preacher's wife sent me home and said I could never play on the piano again. My SIN was that I was playing "TOO FAST" for the "HOUSE OF THE LORD."
