Something in the "worldly" category as opposed to "nudity?" Except you say "above the elbows." I guess short sleeves are completely out of the question for fellowship with you?

And then again you have to ask if the offending young people were purporting to be examples and leaders, or if perhaps their youth pastor was rounding up backsliders and "strays" hoping to see some pray through at the conference. Kind of defeats the purpose of having such conferences if a youth pastor can't feel comfortable bringing his prodigals to hear some good preaching and to be around other young people who would be a good influence on them. By ostracizing them and him you really hinder the ministry.

I suppose to avoid such awkward social encounters in the future you could fellowship at the Wahhabi Mosque in your area while the offending youth pastor drops his kids off at a crack house. But then nobody would get to hear the great preaching or to be influenced by others kids who are on fire for the Lord.

There's got to be some middle group between the Wahhabists and the crack house.
