It goes much deeper than that and it gets lost every time. I don't have the time, temperament or inclination to become involved in it anymore.
I'm sure you understand where I am coming from when I asked you about your belief on Acts 2:38. You said you were not going to discuss that on the open forum.
So, I feel the same way about this issue. It gets misunderstood every time and I just get aggravated - obviously.

PO, I respect your right to decline the discussion.
I was just curious as to what you meant when you said "Have you read Timothy lately"?
Usually when someone says that, they have a point they want to discuss, but if you choose not to discuss it any further, I'll honor that.
My point still remains - holiness and outward standards are not mutually inclusive, and while I respect someone who holds an outward standard of dress (and I don't mean just being modest) I always want to keep it in the forefront of the discussion that there is a difference in "standards and holiness.
Just stating my point for the record, lol.
