Part of the lesson is that in every little thing you do even down to a simple handshake, do it with love sincerity and service, without respect of persons. These things we should do, not reach back to ancient customs of another time and copy their rituals as though Christ would be pleased.

Well I guess we'll just have to disagree then. I happen to think it wouldn't be preserved for future disciples unless Christ wanted us to do what he commanded.

Then for consitencies sake why didn't you do them all? I assume you didn't do any holy kissing because you separated the men from the women, if not, why using your logic? A holy kiss would have been between same sex and opposite sex but you separate sexes, why? Why did the sexes separate when a woman washed Christ's feet and there are other instances of foot washing of mixed sexes and nothing taught about it, fair question? Now I would have a big problem with another man washing my wife's feet or kissing her, granted?
