Holiness Is Still Important

Why do you assume that liberals believe women shouldn't dress modestly? You'd consider me a liberal, and I definitely believe in dressing modestly.

If TV and Hollywood are okay, then a person should be allowed to subscribe to Playboy magazine. I've never owned one, but I've been told by worldly people that this magazine contains many good articles.

It's possible to view television, know which show you're going to click on, watch only that show, and not view filth. It's not possible to flip through Playboy and not see the pictures. Apples and oranges.

Where do you draw the line? Should we be allowed to go to Las Vegas because we might be able to find good food and fellowship? If we simply tell people to live holy, without setting up any landmarks, then one person might think it's okay to drink beer, another might not see anything wrong with drugs.

Why do you think it's up to you to set guidelines for other people? Why do they need the Holy Ghost if you're going to do all of their thinking and guiding for them? I don't feel the need to tell people what holy is, I let God do that for them.

And I don't mean that snarkily, it's simply the way I view the issue.
