Who was the captian of the Riverdance?

The captain of riverdance was Mickeal Flatley. I am not sure who is now, because Micheal Flatley now has his own show Lord of The Dance. I've seen both and if you are looking to see one, I would see Riverdance. It is much less showy and more of the actual danicing. Me being a dancer myself am more interested in the actaul high quality dancing versus Lord of the Dance's showy, audience reliant performance.


Why can't white people dance?

It's a matter of culture, not physiology. It would be better to say why can't people from Germanic cultures dance. The Spanish certainly have a very strong dance tradition as to the Gaels with their Irish and Scots Step dance. Check out 'Flamenco' and 'Riverdance' before saying 'White people can't dance.' In Riverdance 'Lord of the Dance' there is a interesting competitive display of Irish step alongside African - American dance. It might change your mind about 'white people can't dance' They can dance, just not in the way that other cultures like.

What is the relationship between religion and dance?

First note that not everyone believes this, but it is my opinion that dance is a genuine expression of a person. It exhibits freedom and openess and what better way to express your love for the Lord than to dance and sing before Him.
