Never do it in church!

In addition to our will, we are constantly witnessing rude actions almost every time when we get to the crowded places, and we are so not pleased to admit this, that we are simply accustomed to the rudeness of people and the lack of proper education. Nevertheless, there is one place where people need to focus on courtesy and stick to order - this is the church.

If you are not sure as to whether you are behaving correctly in church or not, then, probably, you do not behave as you should. Here is a list of terrible acts in the church that need to be studied before coming to the next worship service.

Use heavy perfume

First of all remember that many people are allergic to the fragrance, so be careful of them and do not use perfumes when you go to church. Secondly, if everyone used their favorite spirits, then in the church the combination could be toxic.

Bring Beauty

The church is not a place where you can trim nails or apply makeup. Do this at home before going to church. It's unpleasant to hear the typical click from a broken nail or the scratching sound of the nail file from the person who sits behind you.

Stand when everyone else is sitting (or vice versa)

No, this is not a stupid game we play when we stand to read prayers or sing certain psalms. There are reasons why we get up or sit down during the service. If you do not know why you should do it anyway, ask your priest or one of the church workers.

You occupy more than one seat in a crowded church

If there are enough seats in your church, then you can take advantage of this. Put your coat and handbag in place next to you. However, during certain services, many churches are overcrowded. If you see a crowded sanctuary, take your personal things away and let someone else take this place.

Wear a big hat or something that prevents someone from watching

If you like big hats, it's all right. Just if you wear such headgear, then try not to sit in the front row during the service. Remove your hat so that people behind you can see the priest, not your back.

Arrival at the end

Before going to church, find out at what time the service begins. And then do everything in your power to arrive on time. If for some reason you are late and can not get to the beginning of the service, quietly slip through the back door and find a place at the very end.

Discussion during the sermon

If someone's hair does not burn, someone just fell and can not get up, do not speak during the church service. People are there to pray, and not to listen to unnecessary conversations on extraneous topics. Wait until the service is over before you start a conversation with someone.

Text messages or phone calls

Put your phone on a silent or silent mode, even better - turn it off before you enter the sanctuary. Speaking and writing texts during the service is rude. The only thing that is acceptable on any electronic device is to go to the scripture verse in the downloaded Bible.

The manifestation of romantic affection

Visiting the church with someone you love is romantic, wonderful and cute. It is always nice to have similar spiritual views with the person you love. However, you must refrain from all public manifestations of attachment. Wait until you leave the church. And then you can do as much as you want.

A nap in such a place is the height of impropriety

If you do not have a medical diagnosis, such as, for example, narcolepsy, then watch and do not yawn at all. This is simply unacceptable when people yawn and tilt their head to take a nap. And if you snore, it's worse now.

Loss of control over children

If you decide to bring adult children and kids into the church, sit as far away as possible from all of them so that you can take the child away, lead him to the street if he suddenly cries. Some churches offer a "children's church," where children learn a spiritual lesson at their level. Other churches welcome the presence of the whole family during the service, but offer a so-called room for screaming. Parents can bring their little ones to a soundproofed room with loudspeakers.
