That's about as bad as it's gotten so far, folks.
You are on that slippery slope! Here is how it works;

- You start watching The Andy Griffith Show - A 1960's sitcom
- Next thing you know you are watching other 60's sitcoms like Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie.
- Result; Before you know it you are are involved in witchcraft and find yourself shopping at Wal Mart in a halter top exposing your stomach

Ditto the nails;

-You start painting your nails with clear polish and before you know it you are painting them black and listening to KISS and Black Sabbath CD's!

Don't EVEN get me started on the Christmas Tree!!!!

"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"
