    Jam, please don't insult what these people do to the anaemic "dramas" at the assemblies. I mean, they use taped dialogue (gestures for emphasis).

    I say this in all fun, jam. I am not insulted.

    The one I go to has a celtic band for the welcoming music, a pianist, a choir and a handbell group. It's a fairly small chuch, so that's is a lot of music. Sometimes there is a solo or duette. Afterwords they have food, not a full meal, but close, veggies, chips, cookies, deli meats.

    I visited the catholic church when I came to town, too. I must say that the service was a visual and auditory treat. There were handbells and a choir. Incense, too. I looked like such a noob because everyone else knews how to reply in the responsive service, and I don't know the words; when to kneel, when to stand up. I liked the priest; earthy. He used words like eh, and "you know". There are snacks after service and a chance to chat.

    Cstholic religion has changed so much.

    Still largely very conservative in some countries though. what's that saying, iron fist in velvet glove, only minus the velvet glove. lol.

    Irish dancing itself, originated as it was the only dance they were allowed to do ( no touching bodies etc ).

    Pagan heathen Ireland had to be 'civilised' by the RCChurch.
