No, not all secular music corrupts. Some sing of a man's love for a woman and vise verse. Some sing of a person's pain, and thus helps us to feel less alone in ours. Also, classical music doesn't have words, and is considered very secular. Perhaps you need more experience with music before you make blanket assumptions about it.

We can still give HIM the glory even if we indulge in secular music. How can the beautiful voice of Alicia Keys or the evocative horn of Louis Armstrong not be a gift from HIM?

I think that it can't all be lumped into one. If the song speaks of sinful activities and glorifies them, it's not good to listen to. If it stirrs up sinful desires in you, either by the lyrics or the beat, it's not good. If you use music to escape from your problems, it's not good.
But, many types of music can be used to worship God, and some are just fun and silly. I think this is one of those areas that is ok for some and not for others. Like the Bible says "everything is permissible for me, but not everything is beneficial' If your music causes someone else to stumble, you shouldn't listen to it.

NO. It depends on the music. As long as there are no vulgar or sexually explicit lyrics, what's wrong with it? I love "In My Life" by the Beatles - it's one of my favorite songs of all time!

Secular music can corrupt us if we let it. We are not unaware of satan's schemes!

Yes. It corrupts the soul. Nickelodeons and honky tonks too!

You are free to listen to whatever you want. As am I. Keep your religious censorship to yourself.
