Re: UPC Pastor Convicted of Slander in Pulpit!
If I, as a Conservative woman, was at the pool side with a man who was NOT my husband and dressed in a bikini, I would wager to say, I had already been doing something to get me there. Just sayin'.....
So, we are finding this to be acceptable dress in mixed company? Am I understanding that to be true? If so, I remember when we used to walk away from things, now it appears we are walking back to a place we, once, wanted to leave behind. The spiraling down of modesty. Who would have thunk? I should have stayed a Catholic. I could wear a bikini, get drunk and still be saved. I must be getting the raw end of the deal - ya think? LOL!

No one wears bikinis in our family... and yet I can think of many times I/we were in the same vicinity as those who were. Beach, street, in the homes of my customers... Never crossed my mind that they were fornicators.
And remember, the issue is not so much about what we should be wearing, but a pastor saying it is fornication, and constitutes reason for divorce. That's scary and far more questionable than the swimsuit it'self.

Well as a good kool aid-drinking Catholic you could always blame the parents of pedophile victims for allowing their kids to be alone with the man of God.
Blame the victim

No girls in my household are going to be wearing bikinis. But, wearing a bikini is not fornication, or adultery, which is what this woman was accused of.

But we don't know the whole story. And wearing a bikini is not fornication.

What? Like driving your car? Taking the bus? A cab ride to the city pool?

It seems the marriage was on the rocks. That's the only case that needs to be made to find grounds for a divorce. And then, when the legal stuff finally drags out and is complete, both parties should be a bit wiser and just move on.
Instead, some party on the sidelines here felt that it would be "helpful" for the gentleman to "move on" if they all first dragged the ex through the mud. You can do it that way, I suppose, but it will cost ya around a half million dollars to get 'er done.

So are you saying that your refusal to get drunk and wear a bikini is what saves you?

Re: UPC Pastor Convicted of Slander in Pulpit!
I got to wonder if the first Mrs. Driver being 7 years older than Mr. Driver played any part in this?
