No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?

I think he was being facetious.

That is right Mark! If they had more proof they would use it.

I like a woman in a dress. However, if you research the matter sincerely you will find that it is misapplication. The question must be asked: HOW DID THEY APPLY IT THEN?

The difference in dress consisted on different undergarments, the belts (or material used to tie at the waist), and the hem of the robe.

Pants that women wear are different from men -- frankly most men could not wear by how they are cut.

Now they will respond -- YOUR GOING TO HELL -- Its an abomination!

BUt you are talking about ancient civilization stokes. You don't think that Duet 22 applies to whatever time frame you are in ? I know that 99% of the women now wear pants but again I ask, isn't this as a result of the breakdown of society ( for the worse, not better!)

I was taught in heremeneutics that in order to properly apply the Bible one needed to properly interpret it in its original time and setting.

Most scholars believe that this verse was explicitly geared towards women who actively looked to be like a man. What we today would call a Butch. In this case, I do think a woman is displeasing God. She is intentionally trying to confuse the sex barrier. However, 99% of the women are not trying to confuse the sex barrier nor are they wearing men's clothing. It is clothing fashioned for them and their bodies.
