Funny thing about pants being a sin. I learned in my childhood that pants worn in any fashion by women were a sin.

Imagine my surprise when one frigid morning as school was starting in the church school I attended that my pastor and his wife oversaw, my pastor's wife informed us all that it was so cold, she had her son's long underwear on! Long johns!! Pants!!

I was 14, so I started wearing jogging pants under my skirts, and covered the legs with leg warmers. When the pastor's wife found out, she was furious! I was wearing pants, and that wasn't allowed!!

I suppose the definition is in the eye of the wearer, huh?

Situational hellboundedness.

It is in times like these that people demonstrate that they really don't believe what they say they believe.

This causes confusion and doubt in the hearts and minds of many.

Oh, yes, I can say that I personally know people and churches that view sleepers on baby girls as wrong. And when I lived in a colder climate, eyebrows were raised over a baby girl in a snow-suit. Their little legs couldn't be covered to keep them warm. They had to have a skirt on at all times. Never could figure out how it's more modest for a little girl to be showing off her underwear because she has a hard time keeping her skirt down, but if the parents put leggings on her - under her skirt, even - then it was suddenly a big issue. I had a friend who was given a little pajama set for her baby girl - about 3 months old. She took those pajama bottoms apart and made them into a skirt so she could wear them. A lot of time and effort goes into making sure they toe that line and don't cross it.

To be consistant I would have to consider pjs as pants. If people are going to try to be right be right all the way and not half the way.

Is it for consistency that you do so?

Were it not for the blatant inconsistency would you feel that this is wrong?

I'm guessing you're a male and live down south.

Now here is an important question.

For consistency, you would also have to agree that women wearing pantyhose are also wearing pants.

Think about it. Just because they are sheer material doesn't mean it's ok. Pattern-wise, they are no different than the bottom half of pajamas with feet in them.
