I'm not going to interfere with someone's emotional expression unless they are disrupting a service and making it all about themselves. And I certainly wouldn't want to start a thread to begin a mocking campaign. Just sayin'...

Seriously?  My kids have been copying people's dances since they were knee-high to a grasshopper. I thought every kid that grew up in church did that. Copying how people dance isn't the same thing as feeling disgust toward them for dancing like Michel did toward David. She wasn't out there with him; she was looking down on him in disdain from her window and putting him down for worshiping God. I didn't get that from the linked videos at all.
Your kids have never *learned* and demonstrated the dances of people at church?
