Hi there
You guys should start learning your OWN language (ENG I assume) properly -- the old usage --sacred or profane meant sacred / religious stuff and profane meant secular stuff -- nothing to do with "porno" or whatever.

Donizetti is a good example of "Sacred and Profane classical music "

Enjoy !!!!



cheers

Perhaps you could do a bit of a deeper dive on the definition and history of profanity then.
