It is reported that one elderly sister in British Columbia expressed complete disgust at what she considered an obscene act in the Bethel 'Happy Song'. Now everything is, of course, subject to perspective. I would imagine her perspective is just as valuable as anyone elses. When she saw the Bethel firemen at about 2:30 into the video, it was more than she could take. She told her son to 'shut that filth off . It's Ezekial 8 all over again, thrusting the shoot to Jehovah's nose...'

I appear to have missed something. Could you specify what specific action in the Bethel was construed by the elderly Witness as "obscene"? You also say that "It is reported that one elderly sister....etc". Where was it reported? Many thanks for answering my questions. -

Perhaps as you get older, normal things appear obscene.
My father, with his dementia, found newspaper ads for perfume with women dressed in evening gowns to be 'nudey pictures' and would rip them out and crumple them up in disgust.

Well, whether she knows it or not, she's one of us - an "apostate" - now.

I wonder whether the scenes with the Bethel firefighters were reminiscent in her mind of the dancing (and camp) firefighters in music videos of the 1970s group the Village People? Perhaps that is why she construed that aspect of the Bethel 'Happy' video as "obscene".
But who knows what she meant. In some circles their is a phrase "obscenely good" which conjures up all sorts of naughty thoughts. Look what that "innocent" Bethel video has given rise to.
