I wore mmy kilt to church and the pastor thought he was making a funny, but it turned out to be a stupid comment. Wont wear mine back to church until he gets his nnew call. I hope it wont be long.

bad kilt jokes from a man of the cloth? Sorry to hear that. I will ask why you don't want to wear it back, though. You shouldn't feel the least bit ashamed or embarassed about your kilt, regardless of what someone else says. I'm sure most people here got a good ribbing or two the first time they were seen in any given place with a kilt. It is little more than the general public's tendancy to make fun of something different or that they don't understand. Wearing it again next time you go will show the pastor that you are not wearing it as a joke, and that it has a true meaning to you. And not to delve too far into a religious discussion...shouldn't the pastor be well aware of persecution and ridicule?
Good luck. We are here if you have questions or support..

KT's preachin' to the choir again...But seriously: Today was quite interesting as far as stunned looks and gaping mouths go; I saw more than I could count (I was quite probably the only kilted man there). That's to be expected in a congregation of over 800 people, especially when you enter the church at the front near the altar and the place is already packed with parishioners.
As I said to macsim in an email today, the Monsignor paid me the highest compliment of the day so the ones who looked upon me in utter horror can take it up with him if they're that easily offended..he'll set them back on the straight and narrow.

Thats a great looking outfit, and a great looking tartan. I dont think I've seen a pic of a kilt in that tartan before. I like tans and greens.
I wore my SWK Nightstalker with a grey button down today to my friends. Got a great compliment from the only lady there I was interested in impressing.
That's a very handsome outfit. I like the clean look without a sporran.
I like the outfit as wekk, but personally it does feel a bit incomplete without a sporran and pin. But that's just me. I love to accessorize!
I think you look great. That's an excellent tartan. And besides, how can a man with a cane not look good. That's one of the few things I like about being handicapped (aside from getting the good parking spaces). I love my cans. Not only do they help me move around, but they make me look good. Nopadon actually got upset with me a week ago for buying yet another cane!
A very tidy look Macsim.Nice and understated, and awesome to find matching shirt with the hose. Is that the Irish Fitzsimmons? And is it by county or name?
I own a county Westmeath as that where my Fitzsimons (one M) ancestors hale from.
