The crazy thing is this post was specifically aimed at "Christian musicians " . And specifically how their Christian beliefs influence their music .

Even as I am writing , I know this should not be necessary to write .

As much as I respect and genuinely love other musicians, whatever their beliefs or non belief , I don't understand why non Christians musicians feel they have anything to contribute of any relevance to this specific post . That's not saying they have no right to contribute if they want to . It's a public forum .

But what relevance can their contribution possibly have to the subject matter ?

This post went south very early ( as most here knew it would ) not because of the subject matter but because of the unnecessary irrelevant posts . Thanks to Nigel's intervention it was saved .

This post is not about stating your faith or about what you believe . The description in the post title settles all that . What would be really helpful is just some more relevant contribution on the subject matter from those folks who fit the description of the subject matter .

That's not too much to ask really .
