    Want to make yourself REALLY crazy - Read this one...

    Hey Rabble,

    This is one dude who has waaaaay too much time on his hands. A wack-job's brief diatribe on...are you ready? Wait for it...

    Why "It is Sinful for Men to Wear Kilts!"

    Read on, dear brothers and sisters. As the Facebook poster who brought this to my attention observed, "He must be a minion of King George II."

    http://www.dividedbytruth.org/BD/kilts.htm

    So obviously this guy has never hefted a 16 oz Strome 8 yard tank if he thinks of a kilt as "soft raiment". Or for that matter been to any Highland Games and seen a thrower. There are so many things in this article that are just outright hilarious, I thought you all might like a peek. The only "sin" I see in this article is the lad in the photo at the top wearing a kilt that is about 4 inches too long for him! (But then again it is his sinful kilt, not mine)

    "Foolery, sir, does walk about the orb like the sun, it shines everywhere." ~ William Shakespeare

    cheers!

    I'm not even going to dignify this with a detailed response.

    He's not stupid, he's is a fool. Using religion to support his idea of what is "sissyish" and such he loudly proclaims himself to be. He can give his own opinion and that's fine, but to attempt to cloak it in religious trappings is foolish in my opinion. And soft rainment simply meant nice, non-course, nice material. It never meant "girly".

    I sense an ego problem with this dude and his MANLY faith.

    That last was sarcasm.
    "The Highland dress is essentially a 'free' dress, -- that is to say, a man's taste and circumstances must alone be permitted to decide when and where and how he should wear it... I presume to dictate to no man what he shall eat or drink or wherewithal he shall be clothed." -- The Hon. Stuart Ruaidri Erskine, The Kilt & How to Wear It, 1901.

    A sin! REALLY? It just amazes me how some will use religion to justify their intolerance. Now tell me how this man's views differ from those who cry for jihad against Western infidels?
