When will people mature beyond the rulebook mentality? Seriously, the attitude is where it starts. Sin is first conceived before it is birthed. It is first internal, then external, and if let go has eternal consequence.

Motive and Attitude....
Did you read all the posts! Smelling good and taking baths were never

In all seriousness, if makeup is wrong, so is perfume. Every argument used to condemn makeup applies equally to perfume.

And high heel shoes.
And fancy hairdos.

You simply can't bring up arguments to support one pet issue, and then not apply it across the board. Well, you can, but you lose credibility.

Well, you can't *see* perfume, but they are both advertised as alluring.

Although this is rather a strawman argument since all makeup isn't categorized under "bright red lipstick", not to mention the fact that bright red lipstick isn't even in style these days.

The point is/was that hardly anyone wears "bright red lipstick" unless they are modeling for a magazine cover.

This is sort of like saying in response to someone who thinks shorts are OK on women (or shirts showing skin above the elbow), "so you think that someone wearing a bikini to church is ok????".
Straw man.
