oops.
I want to make it clear that my earlier statement was my own decision and not intended to be more than an observation, a factor to consider.
My present congregation would take it better than previous ones but I still feel it is the wrong place for me to be a distraction. On the other hand, those that are distracted have more to examine within themselves. One view I take, not as a rigid rule, is that narrow-mindedness is just another disability to accommodate. They have a right to worship, and no right to impose on others. There are a few, a minority, in our congregation. It doesn't affect my own worship to wear my kilt or not. I'm more distracted with sitting in the military kilt for that long, it's not as comfortable for sitting as it is for walking and standing.
Maybe I'm doing this congregation a disservice and should reconsider after hearing the feedback here. Yes, I'll think about it.
No, I don't see wearing a kilt to church as the same as wearing a "Jimmy Hat".
Yes, I would be surprised, horrified and ashamed if any of our congregation mistreated a visitor/guest in a kilt, and I would definitely speak out.
