Well for me anyways.
As I live under my parents roof I have to respect their rule, no music or activity during this day out of respect for Jesus dying on this day.

A day without music is like a day without food.

    They just see music as intended to party and celebrate to, I argued that not all music is like this.

  • My mom is highly religious but she never had any rules like that at all for me when I lived with my parents. I've never heard of that before and I live in the south. My mom is methodist. I too don't really understand the idea of no music or anything on the day, but I guess it is a sign of reverance and respect....which makes me think of something I had happen to me a while back.

    I went with a friend to the local VFW because the brother of one of our friends was playing in the band there that night. We were sitting around the table talking and drinking and at some point I flipped my cap around backwards. In a minute this dude comes over and starts lecturing me about having respect for the veterans and if I would please turn my cap back around. He said 'it's disrespectful to the veterans in here.'

    I'm all for respecting veterans but really?? Hell, my dad is a veteran and I wear my cap backwards around him nearly everyday and he's never said anything

    Sorry for changing the subject....just seemed like a good place to share....carry on :D
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    classical music for example... is uplifting and doesnt cloud peoples minds.

    hell yeah music is a celebration. should we not be joyous that we are alive???

    The rules of religion baffle me.....

    If Jesus was real surely he'd want people to have a laugh on the day set aside to commemorate his death not sit round and be morose?

    Huh... I've never heard of this. And I come from the Bible Belt with a very religious mom. I'm thinking that's just something your mom does, not that it's dictated by religion specifically. You think?

    Of my innocence... got back my inner sense...
