Not all baptist are alike so not all of them will abstain from the same things but some abstain from any form of tobacco, alcohol, and modernist views. Some more fundamentalist will abstain from modern styles of dress and fashion, Rock, Rap, and even Christian rock music, TV, and movies. Anything that is to worldly.
No. I listen to Christian music on a regular.

Just so you know, this is a very controversial topic among Christians today. So be warned - I might take a while to explain (sorry)! :)"Worldly" music is music that makes you feel good, entertains you, and, in general, attracts your attention to something visual or sensual. For example, attracting your attention to you boyfriend or girlfriend, making you feel "soft and fuzzy" inside, etc. I'm not saying all "worldly" music is wrong, because as a teenager, I'm certainly no expert!(I hope I'm not sounding too philosophical!)"Church" music or "Christian" music, however, focuses your attention on God (Jesus Christ) and what He did for us. (For more info God and the Bible, take a look at this website...answersingenesis.org)Now, the thing is, some "Christian" music does not focus on God but on the something else instead (for example, the actual music or musicians). So, this begs the question "Is this really Christian music?"You decide.
It depends on the people. Christian music has a huge following when its all put together, obviously people have different tastes as to the specific music. Music's purpose is to bring glory to God, so christian music is the one type which will never die out. When people who are not christians dislike christian music, they are usually referring to the lyrics. If that is the case, you could well challenge them on the subject matter of the songs they listen to. Often secular music is about sex, depression, violence, and those things that matter to people with a worldly experience.
Secular music is non-religious music. The word"Secular" basically means worldly. Another word for "Secular" is Mainstream. For example: Music that you'd hear at a church would be considered "Christian music" or "religious music." Music that you'd hear on modern rock radio is considered "secular" or "mainstream."
