I did not say no one knows what it is. Just that different people have different views on what is and what is not modest. Why is that so hard to get across?

Please stop these Burka comments. It has nothing to do with the Bible inspired by GOD & it has nothing to do with modesty. The Burka has been religiously forced upon women in order to oppress them & punish them it is right next to female genital mutilation. That is not true, the burka is because Islamic men can't handle themselves even in public, as is being expressed all across Europe and the middle east. I agree that tha surgery has nothing to do with this conversation but the burka certainly does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In talking to some they tell me that one becomes accustom to it quickly and there is really little lusting going around. They also said that if everyone went wound in the buff people would take better care of their bodies. While I was never really inclined time join them I would have to agree that if we were all in the buff I would have taken much better care of my body. One odd thing I noticed was that most of the people there were married couples and they said that no one they knew were unfaithful to their wives... I wish I could say that about most of the churches I've been to. Yes. Most women even when dressed "modestly" ( like a long dress with long sleeves) if they are nice looking, lustful thoughts can come into someone's head. For me it is a man in a kilt. Oh my do I ever like a man in a kilt. With beautiful eyes and long hair. Okay I'm done now. Sorry got lost there for a moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. People want to give their own words to Scripture. So it agrees with what they want to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know that the Real GOD is NOT Allah, we know that the Bible did not mention that it was 100 yds of BLACK woven material that covered the head and the body--the Bible says God used animal skins. The burka is Islamic & oppressive and I find it insulting to God to make reference to it in this context as His scripture we are referencing. Why do you keep insisting to throw it in? It is a demon inspired , same as some 9 armed hindu diety is demon inspired - so why would you think God did anything like that? Yes, the Burka does not even come into play when we are discussing that a woman should dress modestly. But it is a sarcastic remark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would know unless your a member what the truth is? Now come on. You don't even know the people whom he is speaking about. You should not accuse them of being wife swappers and pedos. People who wear clothes do that sort of thing too. I do not like where all of this is going. Maybe I should ban myself from the topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
