We are all kilted sinners! Oh no!! :-)
I guess we are all sinners. Either that or this guy is a psychotic loon who is just uneducated and ignorant.

Neighbour,
Be it noticed that the biblical quotations did not make any mention of trousers, as they did not exist then and should not exist now.
The kilt was worn by real men long before the trouser was invented.
The writer of the web page needs to do his homework.

Someone should have him read the 1782 proclamation concerning the repeal of the 1746 act prohibiting Highland dress:
Listen Men. This is bringing before all the Sons of the Gael, the King and Parliament of Britain have forever abolished the act against the Highland Dress; which came down to the Clans from the beginning of the world to the year 1746. This must bring great joy to every Highland Heart. You are no longer bound down to the unmanly dress of the Lowlander. This is declaring to every Man, young and old, simple and gentle, that they may after this put on and wear the Truis, the Little Kilt, the Coat, and the Striped Hose, as also the Belted Plaid, without fear of the Law of the Realm or the spite of the enemies.
Robert J. Stewart apparently prefers "the unmanly dress of the Lowlander". Fine for him, I suppose.

This guy has obviously never learnt anything about the Roman empire either, perhaps if he was able to come face to face with a Centurion or someone of that ilk, he would change his mind

Read the book of Deuteronomy. He's picking and choosing, but won't admit it.
Ah, but don't we all...
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

According to the writer, we lack refinement.

Well, I'm both pagan and a semicompetetive fighter. If that makes me effeminate... then so be it.

I think the author's problem is that he lacks the courage and confidence to wear a kilt. Hiding behind religious text and quotes is an even bigger sign of cowardice. If it's his opinion, that's fine. He should state it and move on, not use someone else's interpretation of another person's writings to back it up. If someone has something to say he should use his own voice, and his own words. If he can't, I have no time for his blather. That's my opinion on this...individual. Now, dear friends, I shall returneth to my cartoons.

Within the article the author doesn't actually say which religion he believes in, so he can say what he likes and I for one will not bother him if he doesn't bother me.
As spake the kilted prophet:
"Verily, a wise man and a fool shall die the same death, except that the wise man be not chafed in his nether parts, nor doth he go down to the grave bifurcated. Better in life a poor man who is wise and girded about in a kilt than a man who is foolish and panted. The fool shall cry out from Sheol, but the wise shall enter eternity soothed by gentle breezes, nor shall the evil of an inseam be remembered."
EPITAPH: Decades from now, no one will know what my bank balance looked like, it won't matter to anyone what kind of car I drove, nor will anyone care what sort of house I lived in. But the world will be a different place, because I did something so mind bafflingly eccentric that my ruins have become a tourist attraction.
