The fact that people have a problem following the standards of the Church is despicable.

The Church doesn’t care about your wretched practicality.

How far do you want to take this “not binding” straw man? Do you ignore your father’s direction because he’s not infallible? Do you ignore the priests sermons because they aren’t infallible? What about the priest’s advice in the confessional? Do you infallibly know you are absolved and in the state of grace? No, the Council of Trent teaches we cannot be certain of this, but you don’t seem to care about that as much as excusing yourself from one of the simplest precepts possible, which is putting on clothing!

Do you reject all the Catechisms because they’re not infallible? I guess we can’t follow the examples of the saints because they’re not infallible either, and those who wrote their lives aren’t infallible! Well, let’s just excuse ourselves more shall we?

A true child of the Church is obedient and submits its own judgement to that of another, even if it were not ex cathedra. A humble man prefers even the opinions of one more holy and enlightened than he.

You give the demons delight. A priest was already quoted saying bare arms can cause mortal sin. I suppose it was a pious exaggeration? Come on. The people here who take this so lightly, may God have mercy on you. And if you think promoting the standards of the Church is aggressive, then you better take all the saints and Popes who did so along with that accusation of yours, if you would be consistent. Lord have mercy on us.

The Cardinal Vicar quoted above said "to the elbows". I don't think that requires the elbow to be covered
