George Costanza answered for many of us when he was asked by a priest what he liked most about the Latvian Orthodox Church. George responded, "the hats."

I think that about sums it up for me.

Certainly the pure extatic elation experienced by many religious people has made a very nice transfer into other creative realms. Where would Pop be today without Gospel's fervour? Also, it's great at carrying on oral creative tradition- the Church often was the main focus of musical creativity in the pre-modern age.
