That all pales in comparison to the sex scandals that the church finds itself embroiled in.

The scandals are part of a long-simmering neglect of important theological issues regarding sex and sexuality.

The same people who agitated for altar girls are the same people who agitate for the Church to "be welcoming" to homosexuality and the same people who introduced altar girls into the churches are the people who shifted pedophile priests from parish to parish.

As I said, it is all of a piece. When the priesthood and the sacraments are not taken seriously, traditional morality is not taken seriously either.

There is a parable about the servant who was faithful in small things.

I'm sure that this will be taken as a smart a$$ question, but it is only partially so.

What Biblical citation do we have for the banning of clapping and dancing during the worship of God? Please be specific.

And if there is one that is specific, I'll be the first to proclaim my ignorance (and if you want, I'll do it on this forum)
