Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"

Don't Ask Don't Tell.
I'm not sure what to think.

Re: DADT dies at midnight. Your thoughts?
It always seemed to me that in any social or professional situation, "asking" is the height of impertinence and is not the thing a lady or gentleman would do. Similarly, "telling" is just TMI and not the sort of thing a lady or gentleman would bring up in these types of discussions.
The fact that the Libs hated this policy is just an indication that the modern "Liberal Movement" is not the abode of ladies and gentlemen. Politeness, common courtesy, mutual respect and honor are foreign words to these people. They lead off with the most sordid details of their own lives and demand that everyone within ear-shot crawl through the same gutters.
Now, that "gutter" is official policy. I desperately (desperately!) wish these sorts of details were just none of my business. I'm not a "homophobe" in that I "fear" homosexuality. I guess I'm just a "homophobe" in that it grosses me out. So please, "don't tell" and I will never "ask." Deal?

Great thoughts, Pel. I had an hour of sleep and worked a double shift. Can't collect thoughts. Have a good night. Oh ya. Watch out for Easty. He got biblical and is giving holy kisses.

Re: DADT dies at midnight. Your thoughts?
I think DADT was a fine policy to help deal with a delicate issue.
From a strictly non-biblical point of view, I can see why letting DADT die would make sense. Still, flamers turn my stomach and in the military or not, I can choose to not associate with them any more than I have to.
It's the flaunting of that lifestyle as if it is a good thing is what I find so disrespectful.

I don't want to know, and I don't understand them feeling a need to tell me.
