Re: Would you put up a holiness chart on your webs
I'm in agreement with modesty, and is isn't a bad guideline, (minus the spelling errors), but I don't think it should be on their website. That's something that could be shared in a teaching setting, passed on from an older woman to younger women, as the practical application of a biblical principle. And some explanation as to the whys and hows should accompany the teaching.
The fact that its only for women makes the church look sexist and demeaning toward women, the fact that it includes spelling errors makes them look uneducated, and the fact that its priority enough to show the general public before they even attend the church makes them look like Pharisees. (More concerned with appearances than the heart.)
It may be that none of those assumptions are true, but that is likely how it will appear to people who aren't familiar with church traditions.
