You guys are so foaming at the mouth to find any of this stuff that you can, post it here on big bad ole AFF, and have the "yes" thread of the day.

Congratulations...now maybe someone can find something on MySpace or Xanga or some other some other blog site and misrepresent some other aspect of holiness believers.
Thank you very much. Lois might have some nasty stuff on here reprobate site they could post also.

1. I believe she said she was 19.

2. It's a forum, nothing is pertinent.

3. No.

4. Yes.

Yes, ma'am. But, I believe that is easily done. Case in point, France. Case in point, England. Case in point, Germany. Their society in Western Europe have fallowed a similar path as ours. Exception, I believe, to the point, Israel. Societies that have not followed us--most Islamic societies, and you will note that they have not fallen into a lot of the moral traps we have (although they have a rather messed up view of some EXTREMELY MORAL issues--but for the most part--no premarital relations, no adultery (especially on the part of the woman--a little sinister), and no open immodesty).

Do you have scripture that says you can wear pants?
It boggles my mind how people can use this logic... I had to log in just to comment on it. lol.

What is it with people requiring others to prove a negative?

If person A says, "Pigs can fly"

Person B then says, "No, they cannot, do you have scripture for that?"

Person A then says, "Well, you do not have any scripture for your position either... so how are you going to prove that they can't?" and believes that they have won an argument...

Good thoughts. Hollywood and Paris has governed the world on fashion. I refuse to allow the starlets of Hollywood and models whose pictures and lifestyles are seen on every tabloit magazine at the checkout line influence the appearance of the saints.

Certainly not women I want my girls modeling themselves after...but...to be fair, it doesn't have all that much to do with their hair, Bro. Epley. My Grandma York had short, curly hair, but she was a fine, fine woman. (Baptist, mind you...)

Having cut hair isn't what makes these women good or bad role models.

Bad examples are what makes them horrible role models.

Cut hair certainly makes women bad role models they are teaching by example that the Word of God is NOT important in their lives.
