How come music wasn't a serious art until Christian Europeans developed it during the Medieval and Renaissance periods? Does it bother you that classical music began and lived as church music for a long time? Modern music owes everything to the church, and virtually all the greatest composers were religious. If we had to measure it objectively, music is the most Christian form of art above everything else, and therefore /mu/ is inherently the most religious board on 4chan.

pretty sure it was serious with the greeks but they lost a lot of the music
>Does it bother you that classical music began and lived as church music for a long time?

Not really, it just coincides with the summer of the Faustian civilization.

there's literally nothing wrong with believing in God
many empires have taken music very seriously, but much of it is lost. Music is an elevated form of culture in India, China, Indonesia, Africa, and Aboriginal America, among others, and all of these cultures developed more or less independently of Western Europe.
