You are more likely to get attacked walking past a crowd exiting a death metal concert, than a Lionel Richie show. Loud repetitious music has been used in military brainwashing techniques for decades, in conjunction with drugs and sleep deprivation. In other words a modern Rave party or certain concerts of Rap 'artists'. Much of the attitudes that people believe they stand for, are introduced by the music they listen too. Bob Dylan during his 3 year Christian period, said in one of his songs, 'you have to serve somebody, it may be the devil it may be the Lord but you have to serve somebody'. The inspiration for songs comes from one place or another, thus it achieves one outcome or another. The Psalms of the Bible were often written to music and I find the promises contained in them, helpful in times of trouble. In times past I might have listened to sad songs and got even more sad. Most popular songs make alot of milage from that formula, eg Neil Diamond's solitary man. Many songs are about the heart. I have done some research on the heart brain which appears to send more messages to the brain than the brain does to the heart. Terms like, heart felt, broken hearted a heavy heart, along with heart on my sleeve, tell us, that pump in our chest is far more than just that. This phenomenon was first noticed after heart transplant recipients started exibiting traits of the donor's personality.The heart is the source of our emotions and a lot of our decisions, that don't involve our brains, reasoning abilties. The Bible mentions this in the reference to our heart, soul and mind, being three seperate aspects of our being. I guess these in built mechanisms that we all have from birth (creation) can be manipulated from outside sources. The God I know personally is all positive. Where as the devil is all negative. It takes a master builder to build something great but any fool with a sledgehammer can destroy it, or us as a human race for that matter.
Hi Greg,
Interesting what you say about transplants. It was mentioned only a few moments ago on a podcast I'm listening to -
