Stop arguing, and get to work

There is a useful purpose to all this blogging and foruming and commenting and document-reading, but convincing chant-skeptics is not it.

As Seth Godin points out…

Here’s the thing about proving skeptics wrong: They don’t care. They won’t learn. They will stay skeptics. The ones who said the airplane would never fly ignored the success of the Wright Bros. and went on to become skeptical of something else. And when they got onto an airplane, they didn’t apologize to the engineers on their way in.

There’s wisdom here, yo.

  1. Read many of Godin's posts online. Interestingly enough, much of his writing does apply to the Chant and Polyphony world. I'm a guitar player, too. Better get to work also, practicing my arpeggios . . . and learning the Gregorian Propers for this Sunday.
