I know Pentecostals that don't have a conscience about watching half naked women on tv. They are so desensitized by it that it doesn't faze them. Yet, I have Baptist friends that wouldn't think about watching some of those programs because they feel the programs are spiritually unhealthy.
I think we may have a classic case where legalized standards have been taught to the detriment of principles. So many UPC folk have been hammered the 39 holiness standards (25 in some churches and 89 in others) that any loophole that can be found, is quickly jumped through.
But those who are taught principles can find NO loopholes.
