Great point Sis. Alvear.
Remember the big crusade in the Phillipines a few years back?
Most folks bought those long silk shirts. But when they come back here, they demand that we wear suit/ties.
Maybe they were fitting in with the culture there. Wait, that's a sin too.

We were stationed in the Panama,CZ (70's) and those shirts were considered *Dress* attire then.

My wife is from the Philippines & those shirts are called "Barong Tagalog"
I do have one, but have only worn it once or twice.
It is actually hotter than a suit as it is polyester!
That is a cultural thing.

Are they?
You will have to ask the Ministers who wear them in the Philippines.
I will wear a suit.
Barong is hotter believe it or not.

Wow, by the number of posts and degree of sarcasm from some, I think a holy and sacred cow got hit!

Not before we all prayed for that cow to get a grill full of gold, and then talk the cow into giving a 99.1% tithe.
