I agree our eyes are opened, but the reason God does that is to save us and bring us close to Him not so we can point out a 'fault' in society that has to do with dress code. Modest is hottest is a saying on a shirt my Sis-in-law has. Modesty is the key...DS....you have every right to be upset. I am with ya

It's very interesting to me that someone would go on the Devilvison and promote standards. When our church split, the people doing the splitting came at my pastor from all angles. When people in the community ask what happened and why did our church split, the best thing I can say to people is "my pastor wouldn't say women were going to hell for wearing pants and cutting their hair".
Now tell me how does that come across to the community. A community that already feels it can't get holy enough to come through the local UPC's doors.
