Should Christians Avoid Certain Genres?

<p>Christians seem to have different stances when it comes to this question. The question is asked in these kinds of forms:</p> <ul> <li>Should Christians listen to rock music?</li> <li>Should Christians listen to hip-hop music?</li> <li>Should Christians create Christian rock music?</li> <li>Should Christians create Christian hip-hop music?</li> <li>Should Christians avoid [insert genre here] genre?</li> </ul> <p>In my own encounters with this kind of question in public forums, many seem to be passionate about their own stance. In this article, I will give my own stance, in which I intend to appeal to Scripture. If we base this on feelings or opinions we will end up with a meaningless answer.</p>
