In a nutshell it's this: worship isn't about the "feelz." It's not about music at all. It certainly isn't occult practices such as centering, contemplative prayer, soaking, burning candles or incense while mumbling a mantra.

Maybe you haven't argued for everything noted. But you've argued for some of it. The other things are contributions I've pulled from others as they brow beat Michael over liking music from a church that was deemed to be too "charismatic" or something.
I think some throw the occult accusation around far too much for it to have any serious weight. But based on your post above, now we can add the following to the list:
1.) No "feelz". Feelz are dangerous. (Do "feelz" mean "feelings"?)
2.) No seeking to feel centered. Being centered in prayer is dangerous.
3.) No contemplation regarding God or the truths of the Bible. Contemplation is dangerous.
4.) No candles. Candles are dangerous.
5.) No incense. Incense is dangerous.
Got it.
