Okay, I see now that I should have searched thia topic up before I asked. As I said before u am new to all of this and it all gets very overwhelming sometimes.
A belated welcome - I see you joined in 2015. If you do use the search feature, you’ll read that this topic can get quite
heated - and unbeknownst to you, there was a thread very very recently (within the last week) where this topic was posted.
Yes, it can be quite overwhelming to sort through all the posts when you are digging for what appears to be a simple yes or no answer. And it should be a simple yes or not answer, except many people have different views and for the sake of balance feel it’s important to provide (name removed by moderator)ut on aspects that had not been previously stated.
But veiling isn’t the only topic that frequently comes up here. Sometimes the same subject was asked in the last few hours or few days, yet no-one seems to use the search function before posting, and sometimes that can be due to not understanding how forums works, or how to use the feature, or not even ‘seeing’ the search function symbol, and yes even just due to laziness.
There is also the other side, that because some topics are hot button issues, posters here are a little ‘over it’ and so that may explain why your post only got 8 replies, and of the type they were. Rather than rehashing and reposting the same old arguments/points of view, it is easier and more peaceful to just direct others to the search function.
That is why I myself posted a short reply - I answered your request for information (because you are in RCIA) [otherwise I would have not posted at all], and then I suggested you use the search function to read other peoples suggestions of what to wear/points of view.
Anyway, I hope you’ll put this behind you, continue to visit and read - there are a lot of subjects covered on these forums and a lot of information to be gleaned from some very knowledgable people including two priests, several deacons and a canon lawyer!
