Please see the previous thread titled "Women in Pants refused Church entrance." This church did the same thing as the Vatican. Just read the AFF replies.
Here is the thread starter,
"Good Evening Saints,
A local apostolic church has decided that they will be putting a sign on their church door that says that women in pants are not allowed to enter their sanctuary. They will offer them clothing, but will not allow them to enter in pants. This also includes small children.
I have concerns about the person walking off of the street who knows nothing about church at all or the perhaps the drug addict or the prostitute that has come to the end of their rope and is sincerely looking for Jesus. Do we risk offending them and losing their souls because of this rule?
What about the person that is truly offended and knows about church but not the apostolic doctrine? Their soul is at stake as well.
What do you think about this?
I am not sure that this is the best practice, and in my opinion this step should be taken with caution, and thought.
I know that people are very serious about their convictions, but could this possibly be going a bit too far? Your opinions please."

This is not the obvious premise you started this thread on...if this was your intent and you wanted the dialog to pertain to standards while "at church"...then you should have made that clear or better yet...put your original post in this thread in the other thread to begin with....
