We throw frisbees? Really, are thongs ungodly? With all the pain and suffering in the world, this is what we choose to get our granny panties in a wad about?

Yes, I actually heard someone say that thongs were ungodly.

Sidebar….

On the door in juvenile court, which is where they hear juvi offenses and CPS cases, is a sign, it reads

“No thongs,….” the ….represents the rest of the list. I’m also assuming tube tops and unfortunately in the City by the Sea, probably bikini tops, and other such attire that would be inappropriate in court, I forgot to read the rest, I was, um distracted.

My first thought upon reading that was “Hmmmm?” Wondering if I were about to break some law that would get my fostering license revoked. Then I realized, thong is old for flops, which is new for flip flops. This possible wardrobe violation was easier for me to ascertain. I was good.

But seriously, when did underwear become ungodly? Is this a salvation issue? Is this possibly a reason that people do not take Christians seriously? Is the world going to go to Hell over thongs? I’d say, “Yeah” if us Christians are more worried about peoples undergarments than their hearts.

I can see where certain outer wear might be considered inappropriate and possibly ungodly, but unless your shaking your thong for the world to see, whose business is it anyway? Are we really going to have to resort to a “Jesus and my husband love ME and my thong” thongs?

Maybe we should really start looking at what’s going on in our own lives, and hearts, and stay the heck out of other peoples pants.

According the the Barna group, only 5% of Christians tithe….I wonder if I could commission them for a survey on how many of us adhere to the unholiness of a select group of undergarments.

I bet it’s more than 5%.

Are you giving more to the bank each month in interest on your house than you are to God?
Where’s your orphan?
How many seeds have you planted?
How many plants have you cultivated?
How many other things can we be a little more judgmental about?

Let’s just focus on everyone else and what they are doing. I’m sure changing the world starts with changing others. Don’t worry about you, you’re good.
