This thread, or should I say threads seem to have taken a few twists from the original topic of whether a ballet dancer can as a christian pursue dance.

It seems that this has gone way [Linked Image] but to take it a step further, I will suggest you read about the Sabbath here: http://www.the-highway.com/c_praxis.html Then scroll down to the heading of “The Sabbath” where you will find a variety of articles on this subject.
