Go to THO for a humorous but thought provoking look at the problems associated with (obstructive!), hand-raising, in the music/singing portion of corporate worship. Am I 'against' it? Naw, but I don't think it's indiscriminately obligatory, nor is it particularly indicative of the true posture of the heart. Maybe so, maybe not! Sometimes so, sometimes no!
Do the scriptures fail to recognize the 'technological dilemma(s)'? Do we fail to see, or address, deficiencies that are intrinsic to some popular technologies? Is it at all possible, or likely, that some of the most popularly perceived worship enhancements are, in reality, impediments to undistracted, God-focused, worship? PowerPoint, and cacophonous instrumental accompaniment comes to mind. Even more egregious is the use of pre-recorded (canned) accompaniment. But I digress!
Anyway, clicking on the link to The Holy Observer will result in this message: Account for domain The Holy Observer.com has been suspended. I enjoyed the satire. Much of it was quite appropriate to real, and imagined, issues and situations that are worthy of intelligent parody.
