I don’t trust people who wear shorts in church.

If you you feel people should have to clean up and dress nice for church you probably should re-evaluate your faith.

This is one thing that pisses me off! Grown arse men and it's not like that they aren't well off. I know of some that have lots of money but yet they wear shorts and fricking croccs to church. Damn! It's only for an hour! put some adult clothes on!!!!!!!!

Going to church on Grand Isle was the only place it was acceptable when I was growing up. Easy way to pick out the natives from the weekenders.

Shorts in church

How about the preacher man wearing shorts, a tshirt and sandals? If that guy was in any other profession most would see how obvious of a con man he really is, but as a preacher he is just doing gods work.

Shorts or jeans should never be worn to church

Not commenting in the church aspect, because I have no dog in that hunt.

But I do think it’s amusing that some men have become such pussies that the thought of wearing pants during the summer months is beyond the pale for them. Never mind that men have worn pants year around from the southern US to the fricking tropics for the last few hundred years...

don't even let my kids wear jeans to church on a Sunday. Midweek service, jeans are OK. Shorts? Nope.


I’m sure it’s a real blast residing under your roof.

God doesn't care what you wear. And if he does, then he is not God and we need not worry

No

It is called making an effort and the lazy arse generation just uses this excuse to exonerate their laziness and selfishness. Family was in farming so at the end of the day you were expected to shower before your mom served supper. Getting clean before consuming mommas biscuits is well below consuming the body of Christ.

Even the broke arse folks around me still had the ability to get cleaned up before entering the house of the Lord.

Not entirely true

quote:

Any man who prays or prophesies with something on his head disgraces his head, but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled disgraces her head--it is one and the same thing as having her head shaved. For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, she should wear a veil. For a man ought not to have his head veiled, since he is the image and reflection of God; but woman is the reflection of man. (NRSV, 1 Corinthians 11:4-7)


(I am just being a smartass, btw)

I didn't realize that long pants were such a luxury good. "I'd wear pants, but I'm too poor to afford the other half of these shorts."

Christian judges the quality of another Christian's Christianity based on him being judgmental. Classic.

Church close to the beach?


My parish is on the beach, and I see quite a few men wearing shorts to mass. I don't think its trashy as long as they are nice shorts (not cutoffs).
