Mornings .


I just want to discuss and get some opinions from you all,

Is it wearing a normal cap to temple is consider rude because i get scolded by people because i am wearing cap went go to Chinese temple .

May i know i am wrong or i din something really wrong here ?

Thank you

As far as I know, nope but some people yes.
Anyway different places have different rules so it's best you stick to it.
Its like a visitor coming in your house with shoes when he thinks it's totally not rude when it's unacceptable to you.

in house cannot wear cap or use umbrella is sort of common thing.

If people say so, just remove your cap.

of course i am not wearing shoes when entering the temple place , but i am just wearing a very plain cap without any logo too .. just a white hat =p



hahahahaha , what for need to wear cap or open umbrella at HOME


yaya , i understand it , i do remove but i suddenly get scolded because of wearing a plain cap ..

but come on la ,, i am not wearing HELMET to temple , just a plain cap , and there is no sign cannot wearing cap around temple area @.@

You totally can't understand my example don't you?
Just because you think it is okay to wear a cap doesn't mean it's okay to do so WHEN YOU'RE ENTERING SOMEONE ELSE'S PLACE.

You can wear a cap to the temple.

But when pray, bow or give respect to the temple god, take out your cap.

I always wear cap to temple. Nobody said so cannot wear.

Just follow the temple rules.
If cap is not allowed, just remove your cap.
Why wanna argue it's plain or white cap.

I sincerely don't get the point of such rules in the first place. Aside from being "their rule", is there a good reason why you just can't wear a cap in a temple?

just follow the rules, is that so difficult?

I don't follow things blindly usually.

Taking off hat is considered as respect.

You don't wear shoes in people's house just because you think it's ridiculous.

At least taking off shoes there's a practical reason, because you don't want any grime and dust from the outside to get into your house. Reasonable.

Taking off hat? What reason?

So taking off shoes is a sign of practicality, but taking off the hat is a sign of respect?

Don't get me wrong. I understand I need to follow certain rules depending on where I am, but I'm just asking about the reason behind the rule so that at least I know it's a reasonable thing to do.

If lose one whole person is no loss, then how one person with their cap on is a big hoo-ha? One cap is more important than one person?

Don't get me wrong. I understand I need to follow certain rules depending on where I am, but I'm just asking about the reason behind the rule so that at least I know it's a reasonable thing to do.

Sign of respect, as simple as that.
It's not limited to temple, a lot places/ countries has this culture as well.

They usually have good reasons behind them, because nothing is that simple. There could history of cultures, and at times practical reasons as well.

Like I said, I usually end up following the rules anyway, but I will rather find out why because it's more reasonable and rational that way.

I don't want to be a mindless sheep, following things without at least knowing the reasons behind them.

Useless to ration with people that don't respect people's culture.

First of all, never have I once said that I disrespect people's culture.

Secondly, I was merely asking for the reason, and not asking how to disrespect a culture.

And lastly, it's "useless to rationalise", not "useless to ration". In addition, it wouldn't be rational if one were to just respect a specific culture without finding out why, don't you think?

Again...useless...

Note: typo on the 'ration', regardless of what you think

Sigh. A bit sad if this is the standard of Malaysian civil discourse.

This is some race culture or somebody put down the rule on their premise. Not all temple have such rule.

I understand you curious with such rules. Same as me. But if I cannot find out the reason, just wait the time come. You can visit the temple and ask too.

Religion have no logic.
