This morning a lady was breastfeeding her baby in church during Divine Liturgy. Thoughts?
Better than having the baby crying loudly because it is hungry. However, what could be wrong with something that is a natural process? Unless some through their lust like perving at mothers breast feeding their babies.This morning a lady was breastfeeding her baby in church during Divine Liturgy. Thoughts?
I remember taking my three year old daughter to church and was looking forward to the Vicar's sermon. Just before the sermon, she quietly said to me, "Daddy, I've pooed my pants". I had to take her out to the bathroom, clean her up, and change her, and so I missed out on the sermon. Just think of the hue and cry if I had taken her into the aisle and changed her there in front of everyone!it's not the place for it in my opinion, even if the mom is covered.

Seems fine to me. No different than feeding the baby a bottle. It's sad people are offended by the natural feeding of a baby (done modestly).This morning a lady was breastfeeding her baby in church during Divine Liturgy. Thoughts?
I wonder if it was ever mentioned how it was handled in the early Church? Such things are heavily influenced by cultural context.
