Crumpet recently did a thread on what kind of denim is your favorite. After many responses and photos, I jumped in and said that appropriate casual wear for male True Christians (tm) is Khakis and that women should stick to ankle length dresses, even while gardening. ; - )
Well, sadly, it turns out I wasn't too far off the mark. This week at the Subservience Meetings, as American Drones receive their latest software updates from Borg Central, they will be treated to the following article in the April KM: Follow the Christ by Manifesting Conformity err....Dignity. 30 minutes of robotic arm pumping Q&A. I can hardly wait.
Paragraph 5 wins the "WTF? AWARD" hands down. Here it is with the prize winning quote in all caps.
"Should we manifest a dignified appearance only when attending the program? Remember that many will observe us wearing our convention badges while in the convention city. Our appearance should make us stand out from the general public. Therefore, even during leisure time, such as when going out to eat after the program, we should dress as befits ministers who are in the city for the purpose of attending a Christian convention and SHOULD NOT WEAR SUCH CLOTHING AS JEANS, SHORTS, OR T-SHIRTS. What a witness this will give to the community! Jehovah is pleased when our appearance bespeaks our role as ministers."
I think the above counsel should be given serious consideration by everyone heading to Dallas in particular and apostafests in general.
What do you think?
