Book Description
"In the first sermon, Palmer bends his oratorical powers to show that dancing is inconsistent with baptismal vows and that dancers have no place in the communion of the church. Dancing is a practice that promotes many things contrary to the Christian faith and ought not be tolerated. In the second sermon, Mesick sets forth several of the evils which are associated with the dance. These, he shows, are not simply adjuncts but necessarily follow upon the practice itself. Finally, in the last essay, Dabney destroys any vestige of pro-dance argument from Scripture and advocates the exercise of church discipline against those who engage in such immorality."--Publisher description.

Book Description
Taken from a sermon delivered 17 June 1849, Palmerʼs book is typical of midnineteenth-century antidance literature. He declares that the seventeen references to dance in the Bible are all performed by one sex, in open fields, and in broad daylight. This, Palmer (1818-1902) concludes, is not the case with balls, in which the sexes dance together, in closed quarters, and at night. The author declares that human nature is "fallen and depraved, and subject to the domination of wicked passions," therefore, attending balls is promiscuous, demoralizing, and inconsistent with baptismal vows.

Excerpt from Social Dancing Inconsistent With a Christian Profession and Baptismal Vows: A Sermon, Preached in the Presbyterian Church, Columbia, S. C., June 17, 1849 Beloved brethren: The following Discourse, delivered in your hearing a few Sabbaths since, is now submitted to your perusal at the earnest and united request of the Church Session. I desire here to record publicly my thanksgiving to God that the sentiments herein advanced have met your almost universal approval. Thus havei been saved from my fears; as the Sermon was preached with much weakness and trembling. In this I rejoice the more, as it gives assurance that, so far as vain pleasures are concerned, you will strive in your behaviour to put a visible difference between those that belong unto the Church and the rest of the world 5 aiming to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present evil world, and making no provision to the esh to fulfil the lusts thereof.
