It's like I said. You don't want scriptures, you don't want Biblical arguments. You just want to be right in your own mind.

You've done just like I said. Paste a scripture and your pre-conceived opinion and think it's supposed to match because you say so.

Tell me, when were you taught women in pants were evil? Did you discover this revelation on your own? How did it happen?

Oh, THAT'S different, Renda. It was their culture at the time... It is now appropriate to play that card.

And therein lies the key....which is COMPLETELY ignored. Standards would NEVER wear what they wore. Why? CULTURE!! Culture is a factor. It has to be. If it's not, Standards needs to change his clothes before the rapture takes place!

Ever think about how long women have been wearing pants?

Not long!

It mostly started in this new enlightened (backslid) age.

When I was a kid girls were not allowed to wear pants in any form to school.

You go to town and every woman had on a dress or skirt.

Do you agree that pants on women in the West meant something in the early 1900's completely different than it does today? As a symbol, have they changed?

Facial hair has been a symbol for different things.

Hair worn up has been a symbol.

Hair worn down has been a symbol.

Pantyhose and rouge on men has been a symbol.

Do they always mean the same thing throughout eternity????

For over 5,000 years of human history, men wore robes.

Pants on either sex is a pretty new innovation.

This is why I've said previously, on several occasions, that the Oneness Pentecostal Holiness Standards Culture is HIGHLY chauvinistic. They put it ALL on the ladies. Not fair. The women are forced to walk around looking VERY counter-culture, while the guys can look as trendy and fashionable as they like.

I was thinking about this the other day. Consider the facial hair on men issue. It's becoming pretty accepted once again for men to wear facial hair. More and more UPC (and independent Pentecostal) churches are allowing this.

Why? Because the world, which for a while considered beards "hippy-ish", has now become once again accepting of beards.... in other words, culture is changing again. Businessmen are once again wearing facial hair. CULTURE changed... and once again Pentecostal men are changing with the culture.

But women can't.

It's rather amazing.
