Bikinis are bad ...
#11
RE: Bikinis are bad ...
Quote:If we’re going to teach young Christian boys to pursue sexual purity and that they should wait till marriage to have sex, and if we’re going to teach Christian men to avoid lust and stop viewing pornography, maybe we, as the Church, shouldn’t be sending our own women out into the world practically buck-naked, eh? It just seems a little bit cruel. Would you serve whiskey at an AA meeting?

I think this paragraph sums up the Christian mindset quite well. Women are responsible for ensuring good Christian men don't have to live surrounded by temptation. He might as well be advocating that women wear burkas, as the thought process behind that is the same.

I think deep down he fears women having power over men.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
