Ask a Catholic Bioethicist: Making Sound Healthcare Decisions
But then again, perhaps what you wear reflects more about what’s in your heart than you think it does. Sincerely ask and honestly answer the following questions:
A. How does my attire at Mass compare with my attire when I attend a wedding as a guest?
B. How does my attire at Mass compare with my attire if I work in an office that requires at least casual business attire?
C. How does my attire at Mass compare with my attire I wear for an office job interview with a successful company?
D. How does my attire at Mass compare with how I have dressed while attending special dances such as homecomings, proms, and other special events over the years that do not require formal attire?
E. How does my attire at Mass compare with what I would wear if I were meeting a senator or governor or president in their office?
F. How does my attire at Mass compare with what I would wear if I were meeting with a bank officer in the hopes of securing a loan?
G. How does my attire at Mass compare with my attire when I want to show special respect for someone?
After honestly and sincerely answering A through G above, then honestly and sincerely ask yourself if what you wear at Mass shows sufficient love, respect, and appreciation for Your Lord and Savior Who Gave Everything For You.
