: Though irrelevant to the issue, I dance in times of celebration, and have also arranged for the availability of dancing by attendees at such events.  Pursue this irrelevancy further and your account will be blocked, per my comment on your talk page.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 16:41, 7 November 2008 (EST)

:: He does somewhat have a point, even if his methods of conveying it are a little childish. He's pretty much pointing out that your accusation opens up a big can of worms. If I was to say that Obama's lack of dancing must mean he is Muslim due to Islamic Sharia, I could also say that if I saw you sitting on the floor you must be a Muslim who is kneeling to Mecca.

:::Simple solution to this whole thing.  Islam does not forbid dancing.  Amazing no?  Islam forbids certain kinds of dancing.  Such as dancing involving the men and women who are not married, and dancing with the intention to be provocative.  Of course there are always members of a group who are more conservative with religious laws (no dancing at all) or more liberal with laws (any dancing is ok) but as written, Dancing is allowed as long as it is well mannered, does not stimulate desires, and does not mix men and women who are not married.

That being said, there are also christian groups that forbid dancing as well.  For much the same reasons.  So just because Obama doesn't dance enough for your satisfaction does not mean anything regarding religion.--[[User:ScottA|ScottA]] 22:50, 11 November 2008 (EST)
