Clothing and self respect
Posted : 25 Dec, 2010 04:06 PM

Why is it some people think it is okay to wear revealing clothing on a christian site? For me I think you are advertising your body instead of your mind. A man that follows the word doesn't want a woman who is overly vain and overtly sexual, it is a turn off to me, how does everyone else feel about revealing clothing?

I like the way you tore apart Brina67's post. Made it real person I think. ^5 FlyinHigh. Way to let someone express themself without fear of having it shoved down their throat.

I like the way you use a straw man argument. A straw man argument is when you change the subject and then attack that subject as if it was part of the original dialogue. Since you jumped right into this particular thread from nowhere I can bet youre profile is fake. Who makes a profile that says nothing about themselves and jumps right into a forum and comments about it? A troll does.

I do believe that any smart and self respecting women should not display all the goods. There is some thing to be said for less being more.



You mentioned some thing about there not being problems with jealousy if the lady is dressed less revealing. The problem is that if you are a very jealous person then you will always find some thing to be jealous over.



Might I add some thing for you to ponder my friend. It sounded like you said your marriage did not work out because your wife dressed provocatively. From the way you have treated one lady on this thread and at least one other in an other post it appears you have a hatred for women.



If you are seriously trying to find some one to date and marry she would be frightened by your aggressive and mean conduct. If this is how you treated your wife I have no doubt that is why it did not work out.



No lady likes a bully!!!!!

Jealousy is not christian have you read the ten comandments

? How about Galations or even James 1:23 - "Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror

Fly:

That is what is known an ad hominem personal attack. Most of us know when we see a poser such as yourself that diverts from the topic and try's an attack. I said christian women, did you decide to ignore that statement? I am not here to make friends with non Christians or CINO's , Christians in name only.

Fly said:

Another personal attack. That means you have nothing intelligent to say so you attack the man instead of the argument. A strong christian woman would have backed her opinions up with scripture to support her opinion or used logic if she was not well versed in the word. You did neither, you ranted which means you have no rhyme or reason for your post other than attempted slander. What does that make you?



As to why I am not married anymore... You really didn't lower yourself that far as to make fun of someone for their marriage failing did you?

Fly said:

No man likes a jezebel either. As a matter of fact christian men like Christian women who are very strong in the word and we pity those who speak with a forked tongue, Titus :3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.



Hating is a waste of time so you should stop with your name calling because youre not very good at it and your debate tactics are juvenile which weakens your argument further.

NO, NO, NO! Don't you see what is happening here?



My dear family, my loving brothers and sisters, this exchange has souls at the heart of it. Fly has shared that which he cherishes and that is for a sister to be discreet and modest in her matter of dress. His conviction is pure. Brina has reminded us not to make across-the-board judgments about appearance. Our brother Wise is reminding us that harsh words can stir up anger and gentle words turn away that anger. You are all on the same page, but are just envisioning this from a male/female perspective. Don't let the enemy put disharmony here. Disagree...absolutely! Clarify...yes! Share and encourage in love, but don't dismiss. No one should be offended here. Others are reading this.



I beg in Christ over this touchy subject to go gently.

Lisa

As for the topic at hand, I completely agree with Fly.:applause:

I am not trying to attack any one. I am just trying to help. Being a christian is not about being a door mat and letting people hurt others. I noted in two posts that two different ladies were being attacked by this man. Now I could care less what any one thinks of me and rest assured that my feelings are not hurt. Not every one is like my self and when I see some one being a bully I will call it out and defend the under dog.



My relationship with God is his and mine as well so other peoples opinions are irreverent.



It doesn't matter what source of text you use to attack some one. Even the bible can be used to put others down if that's your agenda.



Last note I was not going off topic as I stated my opinion regarding women dressing properly.



Oh happy new years :party:
