Baloney.
(Ephesians 6:4) "And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord."

By forcing your children to ware these monstrosities you are hurting them more then helping them. You will push them further and further away. SHAME on all of you for thinking this is the right way to act.

Please provide Scripture that
specifically says this.

I now have a man whom I have been daiting for 3 long years, and we love each other, and have decided that the church we where attending was not right in a number of the things they beleved where true, but if we ever walked into a church that beleved some of the stuff that has been shared here on this thread we would leave no questions asked. Our children will be raised right.

So, you been living in sin with a man for 3 years, you don't go to church, you provide absolutely no Scriptural support for any of your crazy assertions, but you're here to tell us all about what the Bible says?
Awesome.

More baloney. We are commanded by God to judge others:
(1 Corinthians 2:15) "But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man."
And if people continue to sin when they KNOW it's wrong, they are going to Hell:
(James 4:17) "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin."
Try actually
reading the Bible before telling me what's in it.
Yours in Christ,
