Quote# 42679

Even when King Saul had a demon, sent from God? to torment him, God also sent him the remedy. Only David playing music, on his harp, and singing the Psalms, presumably, soothed his torment.

At the very least you can play some godly Christian music, preferably some psalms put to music, and you will find great relief, just as old King Saul did.

Satan doesn't like godly music, and words, especially so, when they are put together.

Personally I find nothing fixes my mood quite like Die Mother Fucker Die by Dope

I doubt anyone with good musical taste can stand the twanging and caterwauling that is 'godly' music, either. I'll bet Paul played and sang until King Saul paid him to shut up, they just don't mention that part in the bible.

I second Katsuro. That is a good-ass song.

Of course, I don't know about you, but when my soul truly needs relief and to be soothed from torment, this is the song that eases me through me troubled times: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzsRddk_cb0

What is "godly" music and how do you know for sure that it is "godly" music and not "ungodly" music if you hear music

Christian music is one of the most ungodly things I've heard, unless you're talking about the black Gospel tradition.

Your god is a music critic, now?

I thought the Psalms were attributed to Solomon. David wouldn't have known any of them.

Katsuro, that is a good selection. But not the best one.

During one of these times didn't Saul throw a spear at David? So much for soothing godly music.

Did the performers of the music that you play have access to David's original sheet music?

God doesn't like anyone, he wants people to worship him, such a spoiled brat.

Smells Like a Monkey

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
And it goes like this, the 4th the 5th
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah...

So that's a song about David and King Saul, right?

Wrong.

@werewolf - literalists attribute the Psalms to David.

"Satan doesn't like godly music, and words, especially so, when they are put together."

Satan and I have more in common than I thought.

I find Verdi's Requiem Mass frightens away demons

That, may be but, God despises random, commas.

I thought you Fundies hated contemporary Christian bands.

Blasting Dead Kennedy's and having Pagan/Buddhist statues around seems to get rid of the most bothersome demons I have to deal with.

They've even quit coming to my door since I put my Easter Island head on my front stoop. Much less tacky than nailing an Ouija board to my door.

Edit:
@ cool cats
David was screwing Saul's son, so I can see why he'd get a little pissed.

These so called gods and devils with these supernatural powers are afraid of music and words? Word!
