Seems like it is to 95% of the world. For the rational thinker, it is the only option.

dose wonders for the self esteem, and enhances there view of them selves above those who may not be in possession of those same things.
that alone is a lesson in self aggrandizement.
what is even more interesting, a great majority of musicians describe themselves as atheist or at worst agnostics, yet everyone of them will claim to know something about divinity without hesitation.
never could wrap my head around that little contradiction.

Then let's define music.
I hear music in a waterfall, I hear rhythm in the wind, and hear melody in a lion's roar. The earth itself is music. I hear rest in the heavens.
Yes, even rest is music to my spirit. When I say all music is spiritual, I'm not talking about religion.
In not-so-obvious fact, when I talk about God, I'm not talking about religion, because religion is a man-made concept of control and manipulation. The Spirit of Holliness never does that.
Unfortunately religion has soured too many people's opinion of God.

Listen dude there is nothing wrong with taking your head out of your ass and seeing things for what they are! Blind faith is your worse enemy, dogma is your ball & chain, delusion your prison.
Even worse than that is someone who pretends to know what agnosticism is.

YIKES! I thought artists were simply following their own nature to express whatever prevails in their minds and hearts... There really is nothing more to it than that.
Lots of Artists like to attach 'drama' and myth about their own presence and efforts, because they know the real truth ...and the real truth is that the work of creating theme is routine and boring. If its not routine and boring, then they have not mastered the art, and thus they are not artists anyhow...

A polished stone, on the shores of the ocean called life, has neither dogma, faith or delusion. It is subject to the whim of light, and is forever fixed in one angle. It is also completely helpless as to what crawls and lives beneath it.
I'l take Dogma, faith and delusion any day...Thank you

Did you think some old, white bearded, dude in a gown put us here 6000 years ago or something?

Old? How does one measure 'old' in reference to Himself? As to your question though, "Yep. That's exactly what I believe."
