No, I’ve been to too many “traditionalist” churches where the most important thing is that the women wear a veil or a headscarf, and ladies in the narthex will hustle forward with some rag for a woman to drape over her head if she comes in without one.

And the men seem to spend most of their time writing blogs and being marginally employed (because of course they’re anti-capitalist distributionists) while the women are out there dealing with the six or seven children. Not a good image, but way too common.

And there shouldn’t be such a thing as a “traditionalist” anyway. We’re all Catholics and we’ve got to get back to thinking of ourselves that way. Right now, this bizarre cult of the small, select group is simply giving the field to Bergoglio and his completely non-Catholic followers.

There’s a big difference between a hijab and a mantilla; but I see you refuse to apologize for the false witnnesss.

And the first two paragraphs in your post are nothing but attacks against your fellow Catholics.

Try practicing what you preach, for once.

Hijabs, rags, veils and headscarfs?

Big differences.

Seriously, you need to find a different church if the most important thing to the pastor and churchgoers is a veil. I belong to St. Agnes one of the most traditionalist of churches - Father Rutler was once a priest here. I’ve never seen anything like you are posting.

On Sunday, I sit in the back of the church. I come casually dressed.
