Is it alright to let someone listen to worldy music in their earpnhones.. but while in your car : )

Thought I was thinking today after workin with somebody.... we were riding in my car and he had his earphones on listening to music... I said something to him once...but I don't know if he thought he meant me havin it low enough to where I couldn't hear it..or he was just trybna get by with something : ) ...but I didn't decide to say any thing anymore.... Think I might of been afraid of comin across the wrong way...but the question is... do you think that's to extreme.. or.. no?....something that popped in my mind is like smokin ciggarrettes...If you don't allow someone to smoke ciggarretes in your car... why that??...I don't know if that quite equates, but something that did come to mind...

Personally I would consider it rude if I was extending my self and giving anyone a ride who listened to headphones while driving with me.



It is like people texting while having a meal together. Even if they were listening to christian music it would be rude. Here is why....Because they are shutting their selves out from you and in a way it is a rejection.



It is a rejection and dissrespect when you are extending your self unto them through kindness.



So my question to them would be. Why are you shutting your self out to me when we are driving together? Make it a oppertunity to develop a relationship rather than make rules about wearing headphones, right?



You could even use this experience as a example to extend the gospel to them and make it about their heart between them and God.



Ask them in what ways do they reject God and think for your self in the ways you do and have. Then you can share from your experience the grace of God through forgiveness, right?

Now � I would let someone smoke in my car people are what they are. So the answer is yes unless the Lord was leading me to talk to the person. Personally I would have said what kind of music do you like you can change the station to whatever you want to � then just started a conversation� no harm no fowl�

yea I understand people are who they are... but I also don't agree with alowin them to do anything...more so being..if its' something that's yours...be it car or house... I guess the quetion would be to be to put it clearer : )...would you let somebody shoot up in your car..? and that's where I was sayin...about bein extreme... because..the bottom line its all wrong...whether it's music, certain things they're talkin bout.. or ciggarrettes... I can't see adressin everthing though... but when you look at it...you wouldn't let just anything go on in your car....so the question still is...what's too far, or extreme?? : )
