I'm pretty sure God doesn't care what we are wearing.

Sure. Showing God contempt and disrespect is something He loves.

People who would be mortified to show up at a party or a function dressed like a panhandler have no problem showing up in church looking like a slob.

I'm sure God doesn't care if we eat in church either. Or take a nap. God obviously deserves nothing but the worst we have to offer Him.

[Paul Atreides]

For weeks, temperatures have reached into the 90 degrees Fahrenheit each day and the thousands of tourists trudging through the streets seem dressed more for a day at the beach -- shorts, miniskirts, tank tops for both men and women. The city's policemen have been out in force to assure tourists don't cool off their feet in the Trevi Fountain and other landmarks.

A lot of people in a lot hotter climates manage to wear less revealing clothing in their ordinary day-to-day lives. Surely, those people can manage it long enough to take a tour.

If you really think so.

I'm sure God doesn't care if we eat in church either. Or take a nap. God obviously deserves nothing but the worst we have to offer Him.

I'm guessing you're being sarcastic, but what's your point? I didn't say one should eat or nap in church. I certainly agree there are limits to what one can wear, but how does wearing shorts in church make one contemptous of God?

Gosh, dressing respectfully. Next you'll want people to stop talking and turn off their cell phones.
