I know what dancers are supposed to look like, and these "liturgical dancers" aren't it!
The problem with these folks is that they could never get a real gig. They not only aren't good enough, they aren't even within shouting distance of good. So they go to church and inflict their horrible travesties on folks there . . . mostly because the sillies who let them do it don't know anything about dance.
Of course, it's also not appropriate for Mass . . . but the icing on the cake for me is that it would be awful wherever it happened to be.
"So they go to church and inflict their horrible travesties on folks there . ."
Not on this folk.
I told, in writing, my modernist pastor of three years ago that if he ever again had a dancer at Mass that my family would immediately walk right out the center aisle of church - and take our contributions with us.
I also said I was recommending my friends do likewise.
The first dancing episode was also the last.
LOL, I never considered that point of view! Good point. Your perspective also applies sometimes to the so-called "music ministry". These people can't sing their way out of a paper bag, they choose songs (not hymns) that are inappropriate and occasionally even heretical, and they seem to forget the Mass is not a concert for the greater glory of themselves.
