[Paul Atreides]

I am not Catholic, so the Vatican's endorsement doesn't sway me. However, if the minister at the church which I attend was to endorse it, I would be very vocal in my disagreement. What's next? The Bible set to rap music? Country music?

If we're not careful, they might even translate it into some foreign tongue, like Hebrew!!!

Truth is truth. What does the format matter?

Shalom.

YES! Let's drown all those who sing "gospel" music in the river right quick! Music BAD! Pruuuuuuaiiiiissee Jesus!

Why not? Would that be somehow inherently disrespectful, or bad? Why can't I listen to and sing the Mozart Te Deum, and then listen to the Statler Brothers sing "He Went To The Cross Loving You", and then a Rock version of the Gospel, like Godspell or Jesus Christ, Superstar? Are there some styles of music that are inherently disrespectful to God, regardless of the content of the lyrics? That certainly seems to be your implication. Is that truly what you believe?

It's just the interpretation not the content which you are finding fault with.
