Now a man has to almost cover his eyes to keep from seeing what is almost pornography inside a church building.

So there’s this post on the United Methodist Reporter blog:
Wes Magruder and his family have been on my prayer list for some time now — since 2004, actually, when they left the friendly confines of the North Texas Conference to serve as GBGM missionaries in Cameroon.
Wes’s family is back but Wes is still stuck there for the time-being. There’s a very nice picture of the Magruders accompanying the post, but lo! Be careful, warns Richard Mummau, lest ye be tempted by the Whores of Babylon:
As a former United Methodist I find if offensive to see pictures of women wearing shorts and appearing in immodest dress. We can remember when our elders would never consider attending church in something other than a dress. Now a man has to almost cover his eyes to keep from seeing what is almost pornography inside a church building. We left the United Methodist because of a social gospel was being preached and no one really wanted to obey the Bible any more. Women preachers - what an abomination.
No, I don’t know how Richard saw that post with that comment and came up with that response. Perhaps it’s best I don’t.
To quote a co-worker upon seeing this comment:
I think that if you were to look at his five wives, they’d all be dressed more modestly.

I thought the corporate ‘We’ that he kept using looked familiar, and after a quick search, yep, Richard Mummau is a conservative Mennonite. He’s objecting to the girls wearing shorts in the picture. There are some members of my family (just a scoch more conservative than Mennonites) would have the same objection.
Shorts are the devil’s playground, you know.
Oh My God!!! You can see her knee! Her knee! Not just her ankle but her knee.
May God have mercy on us all.
Gah! Mennonites! You can trust the Amish, but NOT the Mennonites.
