“....Catholics don’t know what they have....”
The foregoing statement is particularly true in respect and adoration at Mass. Every Church should have a “Code of Dress while attending Mass” posted on the entrance doors of the Church. If I were a potential convert I would be taken back by how the parishioner’s dressed and their participation in the Mass.
My wife and I went this AM to Mass and a half block in front of us a couple were walking hand in hand up the steps of the Church. This was not a couple of kids and to say the least the female was put together especially with her skirt somewhere between her knees and hip bone.
When we entered the Church a few rows in front of us were the two sitting as if they were in the balcony of a movie with her under his arm rap.
We quickly moved to the other side of the Church and sat behind the gym shorts’ crowd.
Yeah I get offended (and, uh, distracted) when "June is busting out all over", in the pew in front of me. But I decided I'm just glad they're at Mass at all. It makes it more likely that Jesus will sneak up on 'em and hit 'em upside the haid!
