Heck, Grab any church hymnal and check out the theology in some of the centuries old songs. Some are good. Some are spot on. Some are iffy. Some are downright screwy. And I'll add that some of the music the words are set to are fine, other make you wonder why that particular tune was used, and still others are just plain horrible. So we get to choose carefully. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not listen to any song that conveyed an errant message. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
