Please spare us stories of how Romans were wronged by people making fun of their music. It doesn't rise to the level of desacration. And it pales in comparison to the evil wrought by that group for the almost 1600 years it has existed since it's inception. Lest we forget, it got it's name from Theodoseus in what 438ad.

Yawn. Must be nice to have such a simplistic worldview. Well, maybe not.

Huh? What are you talking about? Theodosius was long dead by AD 438. The term "Catholic Church" was first used in writing by Ignatius of Antioch in AD 110. Whatever it is that I'm not supposed to forget seems like something you just made up.

Sorry. Didn't mean to get you worked up. Actually, the story is how RC music for worship has been turned to 'soft rock' and 'sesame street' tunes from what was the heritage of Chant and polyphony.
It is quite a sad story.
More recently, the 'wreckovation' of RC churches has been another, parallel, experience to the destruction of the sacred.
