Nihil Obstat Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 [quote name='faithcecelia' timestamp='1307475374' post='2250896'] Hence I said NOT liturgical dance. But hey ho, if the spirit moves someone to dance like that then dance away.

KnightofChrist Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 [quote name='MithLuin' timestamp='1307479474' post='2250948'] Agreed; no dance performances with applause at mass. [/quote] No, no dancing and no applause. [quote name='MithLuin' timestamp='1307479474' post='2250948']If [b]faithcecelia[/b] wants to dance at an African mass, I for one have no issue with that. I don't mind singing being accompanied by hand gestures, raised hands, etc. Isn't the [i]orans[/i] the ancient posture of prayer?[/quote] As Cardinal Arinze points out there is a difference between dance and refined movements.

kujo Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 But seriously, you guys are crazy for not liking LIFE TEEN. It gets kids to go to adoration. You may not agree with its methods but you can't deny that it's doing a good thing. There are other programs out there, and maybe they have better parts. But this one is good too.

faithcecelia Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 And it makes me dance with joy even more to know that the Church is big enough that we all fit! There are enough masses that we can all worship in the way God inspires us to, its just so sad that people spend so much time worrying about the bits they don't like.

dUSt Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Well, since Life Teen has seemed to clean up it's act since the days of them changing the mass, I haven't really heard anyone say what they don't like about the program, properly implemented, today.
