I was looking a pictures of liturgical dancers* and found one at the bottom of this post that made me really sad. The Daughters/Sisters of Charity were my old high school nuns and I remember them with affection.

* Liturgical dance is another sad example of the Protestantization of our Church. Seriously, why is this allowed? It's self aggandizement in the house of God. On a merely human level it's either immodest and an occasion of sin for some, or sadly ridiculous. The dancers either look like writhing Orion slave girls or they are old women who have clearly forgotten that white hair ill becomes a fool and jester.
