Modesty/Pants & Skirts - mostly questions for men -

Did Scarlett just call Padre a wise guy?

 

Truly it is not about the lust issues, but truly about the garments worn by the priests.

If all one will do is study out the places where "breeches" is found they will find it always has to do with the priests garments. They were always men.

"Breeches" are pants.

 

I live in the low rent district, and I can tell you that your caricature of prostitutes is just that, a caricature and not the reality. I have seen prostitutes on our street that are dressed no less "modestly" than what most high-school girls wear during the summer.

What does that say about the way we've taught our young girls to dress? They are taught to dress provocatively, and they do so.

 

Hmmm. Then clothes don't matter? Do you run a church of nudists?

 

Yes, and please don't pervert the Scriptures in your task.

So you're advocating the illustrious revealing of multi-faceted types of underwear in designer clothing?

Maybe it's you don't comprehend that the "skirts" were not as women wear today and were only outergarments draping over their breeches.

Their tunics were undergarments worn under their shawls which were skirted by the tassles as laid out in Scripture. The suit coat is relevent to that type of apparel and is a covering of the upper thigh areas; no different from the priestly garments.

The priests also wore "bonnets", but these weren't as women wear either, or have ever worn.

God has always set the distinction between men's garments and women's. Women were never to wear battle garments. To do so was a pagan practice to mock and ridicule women and men in theatrical performances."Breeches" are a battle garment worn by the priests who do spiritual battle on their knees.

Now we all know why so many advocate women wearing britches, they want women on their knees!:tear:

 

Womens' pants don't pertain to men; mens' pants don't pertain to women...that simple. All else on that subject is useless hooey.

 

Before the influx of European styles in apparl, only prostitutes wore britches.

Go'head, concur with the efforts to advance the degradation of society by your acceptance of the immoral.

I choose to serve the Lord and by His principles taught by precept and example I will continue to adhere.:godisgood:

 

Well, as per usual, Sal decides, "Why just debate when a personal attack will do?"

Good grief.

 

Isn't this along the lines of what the Pharisees said? :tear:

 

Could you give us some evidence for this please? This is the first time I heard this argument.

 

I don't know if this is true or not, but I once heard a funny saying:

"If you want to know what next year's styles for women's clothing will be, look at this year's prostitutes."

I read that some 30+ years ago, when I used to visit my sister in NYC. I'd take the bus to Port Authority, then walk down 42nd street to get another bus to her apartment. At that time, 42nd street was the heart of the porn district, but it was the safest street to walk, since it was well lit and busy.

I did notice one year that the prostitutes were wearing hot pants and tube tops. And I did notice that within a year or two, hot pants and tube tops became fashionable among college girls. So I wonder if this axiom is still true.

 

I think King James should be the standard for men's attire

I'm not a big gymnastics fan....but it could be entertaining watching all somersaults in logic that might be performed by some, in explaining away your post...

 

I agree. Girls are taught to dress this way.
In the late 70's, I cruised downtown Sacramento with my parents friends. These prostitutes dressed this way, although the women we knew were sweet girls despite it. We would all go rollerskating at Birdcage Walk. Everyone seemed to have drug problems though.

What is a low rent district? Does that mean the rentals cost less per month? I don't think we have a low rent district but we have some low income housing.

You go first Roger I look bad in skirts!

 

Know what "Bah! Humbug!" means?

Lesseeya prove womens' pants pertain to men.

 

We as Christians have to be careful about putting stumbling blocks in front of our brothers and sisters lest they fall.


1 Corinthians 8:9 (KJV)
But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.

Luke 17:1 (KJV)
Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
