    Playing THE TEMPTATIONS in Kingdom Hall! Brilliant irony.

    My COBE would have a heart attack.

    George...exactly. worldly music in the kingdom hall? "The Temptations"?

    Now I've seen everything.

    Unbelievable.

    When I was a teenager, if a group of us had signed up for ballroom dance lessons and then got together to dance it would have been shut down faster than you can say "Footloose."

    Yet here they promote it like it's a normal fun thing JWS do. In reality those fun-starved kids have hit the jackpot being part of this charade. Probably the most fun they've had in years. Poor things.

    I'm astounded. I cannot imagine this at a Kingdom Hall.

    I was always surprised when they did drama rehearsals in Kingdom Halls or even the parking lots. What a spectacle for the neighbors.

    I thought the short, stocky guy in the middle had some moves.

    So far only 500 views. Somehow I bet by getting posted here that number soars.

    This is not ballroom dancing. It is a step they do in clubs, but they've added their own little twist.

    Where o' where did the society go? What on earth are they doing?

    Is this what the Detroit Mormons are doing?

    I hate to have to reread the magazines from early thiw year so I can quote it directly, but it goes in line with the new stuff they are telling the youth.

    They are promoting the world. Too many young ones leaving.

    This is just downright sad.

    More and more, they are trying to re-create a 1950's culture, I guess trying to gain/retain via nostalgia.

    If they do that crap in a KH, then they can play "Last Kiss" at my funeral in the KH.
