Radical Bent ? There's an entire segment of the world out there that doesn't dance much ....or at all and mostly behind closed doors .Or there are the dervishes , prolly the best of the bunch but mostly frowned upon and not condoned .

Give the flower prose to Mohammed, its his reward for creating such stuffed stilted ivory headed gooses like yourself ...you are spouting the accepted lines of the current party , good for you gem Allah would be proud .

I was merely pointing out that the term dance can be used to describe more than one thing. It can be a developed art, it can be an expression of joy and liberation through movement, it can be a very sensual form of relationship between partners

brilliant, now go to the head of the class and point me to the nearest ballet de Tehran or Riyadh ?

As for Vulgarity , one could also look at societies devoid of any swing dancing or bunny hops as somewhat backward , just a little retarded and a bit too self absorbed in their own hypocritical dance & prance of ivory towered "holiness".

Mohammad was known to encourage dancing. Your hatred for the guy is really not my concern.

Let me stand corrected seeing how the art form of dance is just flowering everywhere about the islamic world .

And wouldn't dare have hatred for the man Mohammed , he was just so artful & diligent a person one could place him right up there beside Issac Newton for his mental prowess & intellectual endeavors .<g

One see's some of the greatest achievments in the oral tradition of poetry & the verbal prose in those tribal cultures where the top prize always went to the man who could tell the best embellished story . In fact that was a postition all men aspired too , to tell the best tale that could possibly be told . It was always a matter of time that one would emerge to call himself "the last prophet".

Its happened many many many times before ...one might think of Charles Dickens as the last prophet too , tis the season ....
