When people abuse anything that's when your life begins to suck
Shall we ban sugar too or chocolate for the same reason?

I have no problem with sex, it's just that I don't believe in sex before marriage.

Good for you, I don't

I have no problem with going somewhere and dancing, it just often leads to people abusing drugs and premarital sex.

Drugs are banned in all the nightclubs i've been to.
And so what if it leads to pre-marirtal sex, as long as it's safe sex where's the problem?

Likewise

generally yes, but there is a good amount of rap and pop that aren't influentially bad, Why? is a good example of a not-so-bad influence, pop well, that's easy a lot of my friends (you tube pop stars), Vampire Weekend (yes it's considered pop), and a bunch of others

I'd say pop music is far more instrumental in effecting mediocrity than influencing bad behavior. It seems far too dull and inconsequential to have an appreciable effect on anyone.
