You are speaking of respect for the sacred place, for God and also of self respect. Really I don't understand why. Furthermore I don't see as inappropriate even that the altar boys wear sandals. Why shoes or sneakers would be more appropriate? About this point, however, I know that there are many different opinions. Probably that depends also from the different cultural points of view. During a trip to India, I saw that in most churches they see as inappropriate that the altar boys wear any sort of footwear.MBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122244314012503057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-86760626908710264932013-04-26T00:42:16.737-07:002013-04-26T00:42:16.737-07:00I think that sandals are ok only without socks and...I think that sandals are ok only without socks and I don't see any problem that the altar boys wear sandals (of course without socks).MBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122244314012503057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-7030725752345854852013-04-25T21:17:23.484-07:002013-04-25T21:17:23.484-07:00I think that sandals are ok without socks also for...I think that sandals are ok without socks also for altar boys.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-83165197186241538612013-04-25T02:15:32.819-07:002013-04-25T02:15:32.819-07:00Do you really think that sandals are a lack of rev...Do you really think that sandals are a lack of reverence for God?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-90420796519503801282013-04-25T00:03:24.413-07:002013-04-25T00:03:24.413-07:00http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1291/4668986530_49f...http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1291/4668986530_49f6237e98_z.jpg<br />What do you think about?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-18949917578964140312012-06-04T21:53:29.593-07:002012-06-04T21:53:29.593-07:00it's not enough being at church you also shoul...it's not enough being at church you also should show reverence for God and his dwelling place. have some respect for yourself too!Josuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02874522162219110314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-53453792832468848122012-06-04T21:53:20.081-07:002012-06-04T21:53:20.081-07:00it's not enought to be at the church you also ...it's not enought to be at the church you also have to dress the part. have respect for God, His sacred dwelling space and for yourself!Josuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02874522162219110314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-26420423425708885822012-06-04T21:51:30.182-07:002012-06-04T21:51:30.182-07:00it's not enough being at church you also shoul...it's not enough being at church you also should show reverence for God and his dwelling place. have some respect for yourself too!Josuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02874522162219110314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181589320170374720.post-91206682699977679372012-03-23T07:14:37.792-07:002012-03-23T07:14:37.792-07:00For Altar-Boys, i think shorts, black socks and sa...For Altar-Boys, i think shorts, black socks and sandals are ok.
