They don't want us ruling entire continents and burning people
They take away our God-given temporal power, but then accuse us of not doing enough
The fuck we supposed to do
That’s what I don’t get either.
It's either you are doomed or doomed no other choice
I agree with GLR... send them back and tell them to fuck off and leave us alone 😱🤣
It's like the fags that promote degeneracy and when it reaches even the churches because bishops can't do shit, they scream over to churches for not doing anything
People are beginning to dress immodestly too, I feel like the priests, bishops and deacons are overwhelmed and don't want to scare people away by being harsh. Though, there needs to be a crackdown.
There's several reasons for it
On the one hand, yeah. They will appear to be too heavy handed and push people away. Better to have a lukewarm Christian than an atheist.
Also the era. What was considered obscene at one time, today isn't. And vice versa.
Our priest said you will not participate in lay ministry if you aren't dressed for Church according to the Southern custom. That means a collared shirt, pants (not jeans), and a belt.
You won't be a lector, extraordinary minister of communion (which shouldn't exist at all), choir director, etc
Or usher
I just want your knees covered, and your shoulders covered. I'm not even asking for how much the priest is asking.
Knees and shoulders isn't a lot to ask for.
And God said he would rather have us hot or cold than lukewarm.
Though idk.
As far as laypeople go these are the face of the Church. If I go into a Church and see regular parishioners dressed casual, ok, but if I see an usher looking like shit, then that whole church looks like shit
Exactly
I am a little more tolerant of a tourist church though, like historic cathedrals etc.
Will they still have mass at Notre Dame when it's rebuilt?
Because I've been in Savannah, Charleston, Saint Augustine etc and not there for church, I'm there for sightseeing etc. But I will usually go to daily mass
Yes
Beautiful.
I want to visit Rome and Notre dame sometime.
Go on a 'pilgrimage'
But when I'm making a dedicated trip for the purpose of worship, I'm dressed like a Southern gentleman
Absolutely.
The lady I rebuked had these on.
they were a little shorter on her though
little kids can wear shorts and whatnot, but 12+ should be dressed well
I'm not gonna let my kids wear shorts
I'm talking about ages like
0-6
Them are 90's shorts
I'm still not letting my kids wear shorts
@Iakovos what exactly did you say, and was it to the girl or her parent(s)?
It was to the girl, and I told her she was dressing immodestly and that her clothes were scampy. If we're going to worship the Lord we need to adhere to Scripture when it says to be modest.
