My point is that if clothline preachers, want to equate holiness with clothes then they should have no problem declaring muslim women or nuns holier than the women in their churches.

A few things,,,, why did you bump this after almost 3 years?
And... Muslim women aren't holy because of their garb. A person can not be holy without God dwelling in them.
So... it is the Spirit of God working on the inside of a Christian that is manifest outwardly in a persons life.
Although... many have embraced extremes in their attempt to interpret how holiness is manifest in a believers life.
You'll also run across those that perform holiness to gain approval of God, which is another extreme.
On the other side... there are those that denounce legalism (it is what it is) and women for some reason get butchy haircuts. I never understood that one.
I do not believe in the clothesline. I do feel that their intentions are well, and that they seek uniformity so that there is no confusion as to what is expected.
