How does your argument have any shred of objectivity rather than merely asserting the opinion "This sounds holy...this does not sound holy..."

Classical music does it too. Sigh, see my previous post. Sounding Holy or not isn't the standard we (at least me) are not going by. I'm talking abstract concepts, not necessarily concrete examples. Maybe that's why people are misunderstanding me, or why I'm misunderstanding them.
