Which religion does not allow/like dancing and why?

I asked this before because it always puzzled me too.

Most of the people who answered my question said that they thought dancing was "too physical," or tempted people to lust and sexual sin.

I still don't agree with them, but many Christians, esp. more "blind faith" protestants, seem to believe this.

In some faiths, dancing is seen as a form of worship (as indicated in the Psalms, like Ps. 150). Therefore, some of those faiths will only allow dancing as worship, and not as a recreational activity.

Some Pentecostal groups believe this, but not all.

islam dislikes dancing because for example: if a woman is seen dancing in a room full of men, the men can therefore be led to find her attractive and take notice of her moving body parts. In islam we are meant to remain as humble as possible and not look at people of the opposite sex so therefore, to stop this from happening, we are not allowed to dance.

This depends upon what "dancing" means. Some religious groups are okay with dancing in general, as long as it's not vulgar. Some groups are okay with dance only used in worship. Some groups are opposed to all dancing.

I am fine with dance, as long as it's "clean." Although I'm not an expert, to my knowledge, my religion - the Baha'i Faith - has not made an official statement on the subject. It just teaches that we're supposed to live complete chaste lives, and to clean one's mind/being of merely base existence. Thank Goodness, 'cause I LOVE dance! Common sense tells you that bumpin' & grindin' isn't what one would consider "clean," but as long as the dance doesn't get sexual, then it's fine.

Lestadiolaiset In Finland. They believe it is sexual. Edit This atheist thinks dancing is a: totally clean and b: sexual! Grins.
