Then he'd play a country song and the floor would fill up. Then more disco while everyone sat it out. You'd think that he would get in sync with his audience.

A far as a "father-daughter" dance at a wedding - who cares? If they want a moment, let them have it. I probably won't have a chance to do that with my daughter because of the way she's been inculcated. But then again, it's not really a big deal for me. I just think it's wrong to try and force these opinions upon others.

Good point. So a DJ at a UPC wedding ought to play things like this:

On the other hand, I (believe it or not) tend to agree that a church should be able to set any policy they want to for receptions on the property. I don't think they should forbid dancing, but, hey, whatever floats their boat. And, if they do have a no-dance policy, they definitely shouldn't give anyone grief for going elsewhere for the reception. (And dancing their hearts out!)
