Topic Reading-Vol.1363-1/4/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Filipino priest on hoverboard suspended by church
A Catholic priest on a hoverboard. This headline itself sounds progressive enough for conservative followers of the religion. But one priest in Philippines, the third largest catholic country after Brazil and Mexico, sang a song on a Segway-like hoverboard during Christmas Eve mass cruising around the church filled with devoted followers.
The video clip of this hoverboard mass went so viral that the priest was suspended for lack of respect for the Church's highest form of worship.
Was it then OK to do the same during a mass of less significance?
Would he still have been suspended if the video hadn’t become so viral?

Enjoy seeing the video and reading the article, and think if the priest should be disciplined.
