If your Bad, are you Bad?

I just want to thank everyone who shared and contributed to the conversation last week about guitars in Mass. I have had alot of time to pray on this and it seemed i gained more opportunity to play the guitar in mass last week than any other week prior to that, so maybe thats a sign that it is OK for me to proceed :). All kidding aside, i respect all sides of the issue as long as they are respectable to the musician and/or minister at Mass. With that aside, i have a new peice for discussion:

If you are not very good at playing, singing, reading or serving as a minister in the Liturgy, should you be able to participate?
When does it become a distraction to the congregation?
When does the "being all inclusive" approach expire?
Is it our place to judge the talent brought before the Lord?
Can we question what is gift and what is not?
