Father wants to be cool on Christmas
hitherto
The people enjoy it so they feed into the pride of the priest. The more they sing the more he dances and the more he dance's the more they sing! Let's face it folks, if the people dealt with Father after Mass as devout Christians should this would stop dead in it's tracks.

I humbly suggest that he take his show on the road and share with the world his great talent. Maybe someday, Broadway? Such great entertainment for the adoring crowds. Thoroughly protestant. Well done, Vatican II

Look at him gesturing and jumping around like a monkey. Commercially speaking, he's a no talent clown that would get laughed off the stage if he took his pathetic act to the local club/stage. 🤦
These delusional nutjobs desperately want to be in show business but deep down they know they don't have the talent to compete. Instead, they “perform” to a captive audience which feeds their inflated ego …More

These delusional nutjobs desperately want to be in show business but deep down they know they don't have the talent to compete. Instead, they “perform” to a captive audience which feeds their inflated ego and they end up feeling good about the approval they receive and the false belief that inside their pathetic exterior they have lots of talent. 👌

Somebody should throw a pie in his pudgy face. There are too many losers like him trying to be performers seeking cheap approbation from the brain dead laity and at the same time discrediting the church. 😡

At least this didn't take place in church but nevertheless it shows how far the dignity and solemnity of some clergy and religious has degenerated. 🤬

When I was in the Phils, it felt more like going to the movies. People don't genuflect and they clap at the end. Scheduled confession was once a week (Tues, 4 pm) - very inconvenient for people who work. I tried to get confession at the scheduled time about 10x, but a priest was never available. Had to attend a Novus Ordo Mass as the staff said he'd be available after that, but he wasn't. They …More

General confession before Christmas was posted only a day before - at a weekday mass, so the Sunday Mass crowd wasn't able to see it and with a time when people would still be at work. It was a mess down there.

When the priest stopped facing the Lord (and ended up facing the people) the temptation arose for the priest, especially in our media-centred age, to become an entertainer and to turn the sanctuary into a stage and the altar into a prop. Add in injunctions to be 'relevant' and competition from noisy, praise-centred evangelicals and pentecostals and we get this. Seeing the size of the congregation …More
When the priest stopped facing the Lord (and ended up facing the people) the temptation arose for the priest, especially in our media-centred age, to become an entertainer and to turn the sanctuary into a stage and the altar into a prop. Add in injunctions to be 'relevant' and competition from noisy, praise-centred evangelicals and pentecostals and we get this. Seeing the size of the congregation I wonder if a golden opportunity is not being lost in the Philippines (I think). If such congregations were evangelised within the Church's tradition what a power-house for the Church they could be. Instead I fear that when the laughter and amusement dies down they will be left feeling empty and cheated and assume that there is nothing substantial in Catholicism after all.
