Look at the celebrant sitting in the Presider’s Chair and the candles are lit. Besides, the Church is no place for that nonsense. :eek:

That does not prove this is a Mass.

Sadly some do try to pass off events that include dancing as being a Mass when they aren’t.

If you notice, you can see the Celebrant in Mass attire at the back and to the right of the Main Altar.

The ‘attire’ is barely visible for any of the individuals in the Sanctuary.

If there is a ‘celebrant’ his is sitting behind the altar and we definitely do not know what he is wearing.

It’s a Mass. Celebrant is in his chair, with vestments on, and the Altar candles are lit. That is during a Mass, sorry.

The Pope needs to squash that dancing garbage.
 
ill admit when i clicked this topic i thought you meant the slight swaying people sometimes do while singing, and thought the angry face was excessive, but this is crazy in a mas

Visible enough for me to authentically say its occurring during Mass.

What gives you the authority to do so?

You can believe it is but you can’t authenticate it in any way.

And one thing I have noticed on CAF is that folks are very particular as to who does or does not have the ability to speak authoritatively or what qualifies as being able to authenticate items regarding the Church.

I don’t need authority to make an intelligent observation based upon my senses. I see it, therefore I make an accurate statement based upon what I see.

So I guess the priest just hangs out in his vestments and lounges out in the PRESIDER’S CHAIR, just for kicks?

At what point do you see the vestments of the priest behind the altar?

Are candles used only for Masses?

If you replay it, you will notice that the timer counts down and at the 1:41 (give or take a second) you will see the Celebrant DRESSED in Mass Vestments.

It amuses me that you are even borthing to argue. If someone wants to deny the obvious, there is nothing you can do about it.
 
If people want to worship God in a creative way, then they should by all means do so… BUT NOT in the Mass! Why is it that for one hour a week, so many Christians cannot forget about themselves and focus on Jesus?

Seriously, if you want a “praise-and-worship-and-dance-before-the-Lord” sing-songy festival, why can’t it be done at a different time in a different place (i. e. the Parish Hall)?
 
It’s a Mass. Celebrant is in his chair, with vestments on, and the Altar candles are lit. That is during a Mass, sorry.

How do you know it’s not Vespers or Lauds?

Or maybe they’re making a movie.
