Dick, I think I want that on my gravestone.

I'll also add to the cavalcade of concurrence with a 'yes' vote.

I'd also say that you don't have to believe to like listening, either. I've NEVER been 'religious', yet some of my favorite childhood memories are of the Sunday morning gospel sets out at the Prescott Bluegrass Festival. Years later, even in my punk/alternative days, I still enjoyed the Violent Femmes' gospel numbers (oddly enough, one of which has now surfaced on a car commercial). Haven't yet been singing straight gospel (though one or two songs definitely move the spirit to sing), but that is more a matter of opportunity.

You don't have to believe in one god, or any god, to believe in the power of the spirit of man, and in the power of the music that is created.

My view, anyway.
