Sometimes, Richard, your fundamentalist sniping is merely
tiring. This one was downright stupid.
If you meant to just yank chains, I stand successfully-yanked.

Richard:
You have set a paradigm in your mind regarding this type of thing.
I appreciate a fruity Chablis once in awhile and I appreciate most
kinds of music. Went to a Chicago concert 7 years ago and got two Paul
McCartney tickets when he did his American Tour. Great to hear the old
songs again.
I appreciate good solid song writing and singing. In fact, I have a
few Sandi Patti tapes and am moved by much of her music. If you get
the inkling, I would strongly recommend Sandy Patti Live. She does an
excellect imitation of Karen Carpenter and Barbara Streisand (quite
humerous), but a few of the songs are quite moving...particularly We
Sahll Behold Him and Upon this Rock!

Yes, Jack. Sandi Patty did do her Karen Carpenter/Barbara Streisand
vocal styling exaggerations, to the tune "Jesus Loves Me." (Surrealistic,
when you think about it)
My wife and I enjoyed the concert. I'm not sure I'd be willing to
pay the price of tickets were it to come out of my own pocket. But
then, I probably wouldn't be willing to shell out the money for tickets
to a Paul McCartney concert either.
Perhaps you are not among those who are offended by heathen notions
found in some song lyrics. Perhaps you consider them merely fanciful.
I know I do.
At the same time, I know parents who prohibit their children from seeing
"Snow White" and "The Wizard of Oz." I did say "the *more* Fundamentalist
faction," you know.
Did you think I was singling you out? Reminds me of a song recorded by
Carly Simon and Mick Jagger.

| I didn't think you were referring to me...I just wanted you to know
that I still enjoy all kinds of music...and I consider myself a
fundamentalist for the most part.
Even though there are some people like Streisand who because of her
political views should be prohibited from reproducing, I believe she
has one of the most beautiful voices in music. Tongue firmly in
cheek!) I have an appreciation for Jazz and bands with alot of brass.
I have a collection of albums from a variety of different
musicians. I do believe that parents should become involved in the
music their children listen too....sure!

| Sandi Patti.......her Christian music with her beautiful voice has
brought me where I am today "spiritually". I would rather listen to
Sandi than any other vocalist singing for the Lord. If anyone has any
doubt about her God given gift........listen to her sing.
