Your views and stance show you seem to have many doubts.
I hope in the day of Judgement, you are found faithful in many things.

Brother, I believe the premise that someone's holiness can be judged by the clothes they are wearing to be very flawed. I believe the premise that a pastor has the right to dictate to people what they should or should not be wearing is also very flawed and an abuse of power. I do, however, believe in personal conviction and have no problem with people that keep dress standards because of personal convictions.
As for my doubts, it is in my nature to doubt anyone that wants me to follow them. Some people are willing to go along until it's proven the person they are following isn't worthy of being followed. I am of the mindset that you must first prove worthy of being followed before I start in your direction.
As for being faithful, I have never lost my faith in God. He never has, nor will He ever be, the issue. The issue is man.
