I know that there are 'guidelines' for a lot of things but I have a hard time with a church not allowing kilts. Any church should accept everyone as they are - part of 'judge not that ye be judged'. God, or whoever you think of as your Higher Power, accepts everyone as we are.
Someone in a kilt would certainly look better dressed than most of the outfits I've seen at churches in the last few years. Jeans, shorts, tops that look like bathing suits...I've seen it all.
I was stunned when we went to our grandson's baptism and we were the only ones 'dressed' for church - and of course the baby was in a gown. Three people dressed for church, the rest, including the priest looked like they were ready for a picnic in the park.
I have always had a struggle with the why behind some rules that seem so silly to me...
My condolences, grizzbass.
Chaps, it is nice to see you with the other members of the congregation looking so sharp! 
Keep spreading the word through your clergy and perhaps other churches will follow your example.
We all need hope that things will improve.
