It seems Pope Francis needs to brush up on his Tertullian!

It has been reported (in The ChristLast Media, I must note) that the current Pope does not like the phrase "lead us not into temptation...

"Let no freedom be allowed to novelty, because it is not fitting that any addition should be made to antiquity. Let not the clear faith and belief of our forefathers be fouled by any muddy admixture." -- Pope Sixtus III

If you're going to visit the US Holocaust (Shoah) Memorial Museum...

...try to avoid going when the place is full with thousands of school students.

Am I asking too much of our lovely adolescent American girls by thinking they should refrain from wearing fluorescent orange fishnet stockings to such a place?

While I would agree that the site is considered to be hallowed and therefore should be respected, I don't agree that someone should be looked down upon simply for what they chose to wear.

Which of the two examples is more offensive?

a) An individual who is dressed in less than admirable clothing, but is interested in learning about the atrocities committed during World War II, or...

b) Someone who is dressed quite nicely, but seems to think that everything around them is somehow entertaining?

I'd rather have an open mind when it comes to education of this manner than a closed one, regardless of the packaging it comes in.

(Again, I do _get_ your point.)

No, Miss Moose, I am certain you do not get my point.

The children's clothing is a symptom of something far worse.

The Shoah was not an atrocity or a series of atrocities. It was something much more sinister.

There was no evidence children coming out of the museum had paid any more attention to what they had seen than soldiers pay to those VD films during basic training.

If evidence of such horror cannot reach our youth, what can? A reoccurrence?

BTW, it is perfectly reasonable to judge people by what they wear. Some things are not appropriate at some times and at some places.

About Me

First of all, the word is SEX, not GENDER. If you are ever tempted to use the word GENDER, don't. The word is SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! For example: "My sex is male." is correct. "My gender is male." means nothing. Look it up. What kind of sick neo-Puritan nonsense is this? Idiot left-fascists, get your blood-soaked paws off the English language. Hence I am choosing "male" under protest.
