How is music not a tool of Satan?

I think you just answered your own question. I'm sarcastically disagreeing with your claim that music is somehow depressing and evil, and providing supporting evidence for uplifting music that has a very good message. Neither of which are manipulation.

Okay, fine. Do you think using sarcasm as a way to belittle others theorys sound reasonable to you? :)

When it's so easy to show otherwise? Absolutely. Don't pretend that you've never resorted to sarcasm to points that you disagree with.

Many people consider aggressive music like hard rock, heavy metal, and rap a Satanic music. But the thing is, such kind of music allows teenagers to express themselves. They listen to such music, and all the anger they have is being expressed. If you restrict them from listening to such music, they will find another definitely worse way to express it.

Actually, the child psychologists are agreed on that.

Personally, I don't like the aggressive music but not because it's the tool of Satan. I simply like to listen to radio.
If you are concerned about the music impact I can recommend you the faith radio with spiritually focused music.

It is a tool of Satan. God is about order. Satan is about chaos and creativity. This video has an excellent explanation on what makes music great:


It could have been titled, "Channeling Satan"

The theory is, cigarettes, drugs and alcohol might cure one's depression and anxiety for a short term, but it also increases the levels of depression and axneity for the long term, same with music.

You know, Al-Queda made it a point to destroy music, and just art in general, when they seized areas in Afghanistan. ISIS does similar things.

You really are not painting a good picture of yourself with a thread like this.

I believe on the other hand Hitler liked art and music.

I believe Christians like art and music. Does that mean we are like Hitler? God forbid.

So what you have with religious extremists is painting a picture without any good or evil but simply a blank slate. Are not they wrapping themselves around nihilism and negating God in the process?

I believe music is orderly so that throws your theory out the window.

Studies have proven that listening to music actually allows us to concentrate better than without it.

I believe it can be distracting for me if I am writing or reading but it works great for me while driving my car. Classical music worked to put my grandchildren to sleep.

And this one gives me chills (this is the most evil song I've ever heard):
