I know some churches who would say she is going to hell..
About ten years ago, Baylor U (Baylor originally founded as a Baptist college) had its first official Dance and a local Baptist college (East Texas Baptist University) sent them a nasty note and sent people there to mission to them about the evils of dance..

This is the biggest reason I’m glad Catholic priests don’t marry.

Sounds like her meds need adjusted. Exactly, God forbid she go so far as quoting Psalm 150, Jeremiah 31:13, 2 Samuel 6:13-17,20-23, Psalm 30:11, Psalm 149:3, Ecclesiastes 3:1-4, Jeremiah 3:31-3-5... yea, that would really cross the line..

"My dance interpretations are as important as the sermon itself," Julie says. "[Jesus] was preaching in the synagogues of Judea. While the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret" (Luke 4:44; 5:1).
Julie may want to take notice that it is the of God, not the dance of God.

Hmm. Should be,... the
word of God, not the
dance of God.
Gotta learn to proofread more better.
Or pay attention to my own tagline.

I should have known.. This was pretty plausible because I've actually seen this in church and it seems pretty tame compared to some of the stuff that happens.

LOL - Relax folks. Lark News is a satire site for Christian “News”. Read some of the other stuff on there - it’s hysterical.

I don't know that I'd call their stuff hysterical ... mildly amusing on occasion, maybe.
De gustibus ... Sadly, this sort of "liturgical dance" exists in the real world. It would be riotously funny, if it weren't tragic. It's almost universally very badly done; one of the prerequisites for being a "liturgical dancer" seems to be utter incompetence at dance. And here, I speak only of the female liturgical dancers. The male variety are unspeakable.

Y'got me on that one, but consider the goings-on at circuses like herchurch.org--makes this "satire" look tame.
To: ninergold3
Hey, in this day and age one can’t tell satire from real life! LOL!

Speaking as somebody who has an actual minor in dance (and a certificate to prove it) . . .
. . . it's been my experience that liturgical "dancers" are the ones who couldn't find a gig anywhere else.
I've never actually seen one who had the slightest competence in her (thankfully not 'his') chosen field.
I made such merciless fun of our (Episcopal) rector after he invited one of these silly women to do her thing, he never did it again!
No such nonsense goes on in our Catholic parish, and would probably occur only over Monsignor's dead body.

I enjoy interpretive dance in church every now and again, but I think I would tire of it EVERY Sunday.
