====Physiological impact====

Bill Gothard has spoken on this impact of a backbeat in great detail, and is the person I tend to remember most in this area, although he is surely not the only one to speak on this.  As a counselor, he has been given plenty of expose to people in many different situations.  He has seen many people influenced by music with a backbeat.  These people have found themselves such freer to sin after or while listening to such music, usually [[Rock music|rock]].  People he counseled also used such music to deal with guild over sin, such as one person in particular he spoke of who would go out with gang members, and listen to rock music in their car for some time before they got up their courage to go beat up or rob someone.  Afterwards, the music also helped them to forget their guilt and not feel as bad.  Does such music then facilitate sin?  It seems so, but what about CCM?  The words are right, so it must be okay, right? A backbeat has been proven reduce inhibitions, so it is not hard to believe that such music may do this, simply because of the backbeat.<ref name=

====Satanic influence?====

Before you skip this section assuming I'm just calling something I do not agree with something from Satan, please hear me out.  A missionary friend related to me a relevant experience.  They were living among a tribe of native Africans, working to teach them the gospel.  The family was making good progress as God opened the people's hearts and minds.  A large percentage of the natives had accepted Jesus Christ, and almost everyone understood the gospel.  On one particular day, their two daughters began playing some contemporary Christian music in their room (a tent, I believe).  Before long, several of the tribal leaders came to the missionary, and asked him and his wife why it was that they were allowing their daughters to play the music which used to enslave the tribe to Satan.  The utterly shocked missionary and his wife quickly instructed their daughters to stop.  They had not really taught anything about the good and evil of music, but the natives knew nonetheless. <br />
