I'm sorry if I've come across that way, it's not my intent.
But this thread was about separation, right?
You'd probably be very surprised if you saw me.
I attend an ultra-ultra con church, and I follow the standards. Don't cut my hair, only wear dresses, no makeup - even clear fingernail polish - no tv or movies.
So if I come across as a liberal, resentful of standards, that wouldn't be true.
But I DO disagree with a lot of the teaching I've heard through the years. I'm in a pretty tough spot right now, as a matter of fact, because I do disagree.
And this is one that I've heard a lot, to justify our standards - that we must be separate, using that verse.
Apparently Esther has heard it that way, too, or maybe I misunderstood her post.
Sorry if I offended.
