Your argument is very thin at best. Yes your eight references all include Thomas A. Dorsey but if you also look at the first link you referenced you'll note the first paragraph says

The word Gospel is an elision of 'God' and 'spel' (The old English for story). The genre is distinguished primarily by spontaneity and informality, qualities which, while sometimes arousing suspicion or unease, have been present since the very beginnings of the Christian faith. By a further arbitrary use of the term, however, Gospel music is considered to have begun in the United States, sometimes in the 19th century, first appearing in print in 1874 with the publication of Gospel Songs by Philip Bliss


so I guess my question is did how did godspel get published 25 years before Thomas A. Dorsey was born? Did Thomas A. Dorsey also invent the time machine and go back in time or did it fall threw a rift in time to be published.

P.S. nope emotions weren't running high wednessday night/thursday morning at all. Just observations that I have made from this thread and watching you in the past on this site.
