LoVe, lOvE your blog! Thx for your work! I know it has inspired me to get myself a nice mantilla for church =)

I came across this article, I'm not sure if you have it listed in your articles, but I just wanted to share, from Catholic Sistas: A Call to Veil the Mysterious Unfolds

“And this is why the female body should be veiled because everything which is sacred calls for veiling. When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, he veiled his face. Why did he veil his face? Because he had spoken to God and at that very moment there was a sacredness that called for veiling. Now... feminists after Vatican II suddenly ‘discovered’ that when women go to Church veiled, it is a sign of their inferiority. The man takes off his hat and the woman puts on a veil. My goodness, how they have lost the sense of the supernatural. Veiling indicates sacredness and it is a special privilege of the woman that she enters church veiled.”
