Yes, i believe that it would be the same if she was blind or not.

It was more in the attitude of why it was being done. The attitude of the church changed along with the standards. When they started letting things go out the door, it allowed a spirit and an attitude to come in.

Being blind, unless it was stated to her, how would she know they were letting down on standards and that's what caused a spirit and attitude to come in? See my point? It might have had nothing to do with them letting down on standards but the attitude involved in doing so. Some people let down on standards (I hate how that's worded, but don't know how else to say it--I just don't agree with how it sounds) without an attitude or bad spirit.

Dress standards and wearing certain attire doesn't keep bad attitudes and spirits at bay. There is more to this than meets the eye. But you are right on saying it was more in the attitude of why it was being done. I didn't read correctly that until after typing the above to you. We agree there.
