chokoy: i know for a fact that they should remove hats. but i was raised in the philippines and the priest did not say that it is disrespectful.
Oh, I see. Very interesting.
there are some differences in how catholic church teach their religion.
Keeping hands in pockets doesn`t belong to official teaching of the church. It is the case of bad/good manners.
just like we are allowed to eat meat on christmas day and i found out that in poland they do not.
Yes, we can. Actually, we always could. The ban (or strong recommendation) on meat at Christmas existed only in Poland, was more a matter of tradition than any church rules. Polish Church lifted the ban (or, more precisely, declared there wasn`t any real ban) 2, 3 years ago, I think. But Poles still stick to tradition and prefer fish.
i am asking because i want to make sure i don't disrespect polish.
You are a gentle person.
I wonder where the idea of keeping hands in pockets came from? Did you do it and someone notified you about it?
just today at 12pm we went to church and i saw polish people wearing their winter caps.
You could see women wearing hats, they are allowed. You couldn`t see males wearing hats, it wasn`t in Poland for sure. :):)
