What is Good Art? Dominionist Aesthetics versus the Detachment-Discernment Ethos of New Testament Pilgrim Christianity (I)

https://g3min.org/art-that-accords-with-sound-doctrine/

This G3 article represents yet another attempt to formulate a Christian theology of art. It's clear enough that since the Scriptures don't speak to this - and verses have to be grasped at, the exercise is not one of doctrinal elaboration but philosophy cast in theological terms.

The other day I stumbled across a blog post related to music, 'pagan beats' and its dangers. I tried to post a comment, but it won't come up. Maybe they didn't like what I had to say? I find very few Christians interested in genuine discussion. It seems like Christian news and a lot of Christian radio programs are kind of hack jobs or at the very least misleading. The way the discussion is framed you can immediately tell what conclusion they want you to come up with. I hope that's not the case with this particular website I interacted with.

Attaching the term 'pagan' to a category of beat assumes the categories of sacred and secular music are valid. I would argue they are not.
