I'm mostly curious as to the reasons why. Is it the lyrics? Well, can't a person avoid songs with lyrics about suicide, anti religion, drugs, or lyrics that people/God might find offensive? Why label ALL rock music?
I mean, why are Christian rock bands bad? Because they still use that sign that apparently means "Hail Satan?" Where does it say that the sign means hail Satan? Because it apparently looks like a couple of horns? I can think of many other hand gestures that exist that look like a pair of horns, are they all evil? And if it did, why does that matter? Because it mostly means "rock on" now.
I heard the saying that everything we do should be to glorify God but, I don't get how that can possibly work in this sinful world. Sin is literally all around us, isn't what we're supposed to do is try NOT to sin? Because, humans aren't perfect. We're always going to go sin again, isn't what's important that we confess and repent for our sins and try not to sin? I mean, if we lived in a world without sin we'd just be sitting on our beds doing nothing in the day and sleeping at night but, sleep can turn to sin too. So, It's just not POSSIBLE to 100% only do things that aren't sinful and glorify God. I'm not saying glorifying God isn't important... it just can't possibly be every second of our lives. Plus, isn't that why Jesus died? Because God realized everything that I'm saying and gave us a savior?
I just... can't possibly imagine a world in which this works, sorry. And, that's kind of the point heaven is supposed to be unbelievable. Maybe people can finally explain this to me?
