Lino Dourado, How to dress properly for church is addressed in James 2 Here it is: " 1 My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism. 2 Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in filthy old clothes also comes in. 3 If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, “Here’s a good seat for you,” but say to the poor man, “You stand there” or “Sit on the floor by my feet,” 4 have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?" If I have understood the above properly, I think that a poorly dressed woman too should not be discriminated against :-) On a more serious note, the people who do discriminate against them are the so called Christians who have yet to understand the central teaching of Jesus Christ, i.e.: "Love your neighbour as you love yourself." The lost in the wilderness people are those that have to keep on making rules, and more rules, and worst ones come when there is no one to challenge them.
