		<description>Wow...dancing?  I&#039;m all about giving praise through whatever gifts we have.  After all, I&#039;d be in deep sludge if I weren&#039;t allowed to use my amazing talents in the field of closing my eyes and not moving for multiple minutes at a time.  But while some things have a place in the mass itself, to me, this form of dance doesn&#039;t belong in a Catholic mass.  Sure, we&#039;re stodgy and boring as Christians go, but it also lets us be reflective.

I suppose they could take a mass and announce that this particular service would include the more artistic/modern methods of expression.  That could very well include dance, music that fits more into the Michael W. Smith-esque genre, and even a homily read in beat poet style.  Ok, so maybe I&#039;m getting a bit snarky, but still, even if one had all of those things for real, I&#039;d probably attend at least once just to see what came of it.  I&#039;d then return to my regularly scheduled quiet, humble, and boring reflection.  But for those who want it, at least the option would exist without deeply bothering everyone else in the process.

Does this mean I&#039;m becoming one of those old people we always used to say couldn&#039;t handle the concept of change and progression in society?  Gads I hope not.</description>
