So, let's give an example. If there's a calligraphic excercise to copy parts of a medieval prayer volume, I wouldn't bother. In fact, I did that too as a school kid, again, not as an excercise, but because I always was fascinated by the artful writing of medieval books and documents.
If, and that's a real example, a school invites a so called christian rock band to play at a school function, we have a real problem.
That's my distinction.
