Who can you trust philosophically?--part 4

Who can you trust philosophically?--part 4

 It is a fact that the great majority of music philosophies today are: humanists (some religious), atheists and (theistic) evolutionists. These musical minds believe wholeheartedly that in the beginning was “ameba” or worse yet in the beginning was “nothing”.  They do not even slightly accept the concept of "in the beginning God created music."  Among this group of philosophers, evolutionists and humanists believe that man came from nowhere and is ultimately going nowhere unless he authenticates himself in order to actuates his true humanness.
 It is easy for them to believe that man exists in a purposeless universe and is “caught in the wheel of time” and must authenticate or actuate his or her true humanness.  These musicians most often believe that music came from nowhere (since it is not a part of God's six day creation since God did not create) and is ultimately going nowhere.  To humanist, atheist and evolutionist (sometimes religious) music philosopher, the main things that matter about music is “me” and "my" and "mine".
This type of thinker concludes that music is amoral since man is god and god is man therefore god is in man because man created god. Therefore, any music that this musician composes, arranges or performs is god’s music. Furthermore all man’s music is created in god’s image since god is created in man’s image as the result of the "fact" that man thought god into existence in his or her life(this, of course, eliminates some of the atheists and theistic evolutionists).  Any music that pleases man will also please God and conversely no music that displeases man is pleasing to god. The end result is that man is god of his music.

 So, if you can wade through all the aforementioned philosophical mumbo-jumbo, you will be able to understand why a religious humanist, who is autonomous and has accepted any or all of this falsehood, believes that all musical roads lead to heaven – why there is no profundity in music – why all music is appropriate for public worship and ultimately why music is all a matter of taste. [wow, I just noticed that the previous statement is a one sentence paragraph.  My English professor would not like that paragraph].

The disturbing fact is that synthesis thinking Christian musicians who believe some or the entire previously mentioned philosophical falsehood squeeze God out of their music education praxis and their philosophical basis of church music.  They squeeze God out of philosophical basis because they believe that God is only God of matters of grace and not nature.  When nature, which in this case includes humanism and atheism, has thus eaten up grace, the result is devastating to Christian music philosophy
