Even without the political baggage, and if it were called something else, I’m pretty sure that wearing anything other than liturgical vestments at Mass is verboten. Doesn’t matter if it were a Dodgers cap, a top-hat, a WW1 Pilot’s helmet, a medieval Great Helm with full crest or a propeller beanie – it would still be not proper for the celebration of Mass.
Yup, x2.Doesn’t matter. WHY he wore it has no bearing. The fact that he wore it or ANY hat that isn’t a Biretta, Mitre or Zuchetto in the context of Mass is the issue for me. The Mass is not the place for that. Were I a priest and I decided to wear my favorite fedora during Mass, I’d hope someone would call me on it.
