Its funny that Catholic women will abide the rule of veiling and modest dress for meeting the Pope, but not for meeting Christ in the Eucharist.

I'm with ya on this. We dress better for our kids school events, weddings, funerals and even just to "shop" than we do for Mass.

In one of the parishes that I lived in the priest made the statement one Sunday that we should dress as though we were going to meet and talk to Jesus. the following week he stood at the door and turned people away who were not dressed to meet Jesus. After a month or so, with some people not comming back every one in church was dressed to meet Jesus. Besides the fact to you could hear a feather hit the floor.....
