I likewise appreciate your replies and thoughtfulness. You did remind me of one of my favorite "arguments" for God: > There is the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. > Therefore there must be a God. > (You either see this one or you don't.) - Dr. Peter Kreeft (https://www.peterkreeft.com/topics-more/20_arguments-gods-existence.htm#2 https://www.peterkreeft.com/topics-more/20_arguments-gods-ex...) Bach, man, if you look at my HN comments you'll probably see Bach mentioned at least 10% of the time. His music is unlike anything else out there: all individual parts unique and interesting yet everything forming a unified whole, constantly, across every single measure. You can listen to a cello line and be fully entranced and then listen to a violin going at the same time, likewise love it for itself, and then have the ability to then listen to them simultaneously and hear the harmonies. Every other composer I've listened to has a "dominant" section/theme, for example let's say the violins are playing a melody and the cellos are acting as a harmonic filler. It's beautiful, but listening to the cellos by themselves could be pretty boring. But with Bach, every single instrument is doing something enjoyable at the same time.
