Should you show off the skin on your arms? Is this modest? The fact is, sleeveless blouses (“tank tops”) and halter-tops or halter dresses are not necessary. Remember, God sees how you dress. Dress in a way that pleases Him.

What about showing off the skin of your legs? Do you think that God wants you to show off your legs to strangers on the street? Is this modest dressing? Remember, your knees are best used for kneeling in prayer. There is no need to show them off to men. Therefore, keep your dresses and skirts below the knees. Longer is definitely more modest than shorter.

What about showing off your fingers? Do you think that God wants you to show off his creation to strangers on the street? Remember, fingers are best used to fold in prayer, with the occasional break to cook, clean and admonish your children.

Should you show off the hair on your head? Is this modest? There is no need to lure strange men with its glossiness.

And what about the face?

..ad infinitum.

You, sir, are an unworthy dog.

Also these gems from that same page:
"Whether you are 13 or 60, or anywhere in between, your private parts and knees should be kept covered. Don’t make ushers blush in church."
"God’s word reminds us that a major part of a woman's beauty is the work that she does in serving others. Women therefore do not need to call attention to themselves..."

Despicable. Downtrodden, barefoot & preggers, amirite?

Yet another fundie inventing their opinions first, then claiming it was all God's idea.

I thought Jesus said love God and love one another (Mat. 22:37-39) and "whoever believes and is baptized will be saved" (Mark 16:16). I don't remember him saying anything about one's tailoring as a condition for salvation. Paul, that sexually dysfunctional misogynist, said something about dressing "modestly" (1 Tim. 2:9) but he meant as opposed to decorating oneself or wearing showy and expensive jewelry and ornaments. He was condemning vanity and dressing to show off one's wealth and social position, not showing one's skin.

'The burqa is a sexual scratchcard, isn't it?'

-Frankie Boyle

In an episode of "Galaxy Angel", Ranpha Franboise wore a burqa:

And she still looked hot (that, and her being voiced by Yukari 'Nanoha' Tamura helps too!).

The late, great Bettie Page was a Christian. Even at the height of her photo modelling career.

So God has a thing for lingerie, stockings & high heels eh, Modest Christian? To say nothing of bondage, or even beaver.

Just so's we know...!

'Being in the nude isn`t a disgrace unless you`re being promiscuous about it. After all, when God created Adam and Eve, they were stark naked. And in the Garden of Eden, God was probably naked as a jaybird too!'

-Bettie Page

(Oh, ye gods. Bettie in those lethal heels... she was - and still is - the Goddess of Fetish! :9 )

"@Moose: yes, but even the Son of God wears his dress below the knee. (Thankfully. Can you imagine Jesus Leg Hair? o.O)"

Well, he could always shave/wax his legs. Professional cylists like Lance Armstrong (my role model & fellow Atheist) does so as a matter of routine; being a cyclist, hairless legs are a practical solution to the painfulness of removing dressings after a crash (and some crashes in, say, the Tour De France or Giro D'Italia can resemble scenes in "Saw" or "Hostel"!). And it never did footballer David Beckham any harm (if anything, it promoted & enhanced his 'Metrosexual' image) when he wore that sarong.
