you should wear two pairs, one for yourself, and one for a potential half commando!

Why would she not wear underwear and show her stuff like that in a CHURCH? Is it a sin to not wear underwear to church?

Not according to the bible, I guess. How old is she??

What a stupid question. Of course not. Now, farting in church... people should go to hell for that. :p

If you want to know what's a sin and what's not, read the sermon on the mount (starts in Matthew 5).

What about "getting it on" in chuch after Sunday school?

Not that it really matters to me.
I'm going to hell anyways, for other reasons. :p ;) :D

You shall have no other gods before Me.
You shall not make for yourself any graven image (idol)...
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain...
Remember the Sabbath day, and keep it holy...
Honor your father and your mother...
You shall not murder.
You shall not commit adultery.
You shall not steal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.
You shall not covet your neighbor's house...

I'm gonna say no.

Well answer my question:

Is "getting it on" in church a sin?

Mind your not married, or doing your neighbor's wife.

Yup, that's old testament law which doesn't apply anymore.

Clothes are a fabrication of man. God would not care. We were born naked, and we invented clothes. The laws that say we must wear clothes over certain regions of our bodies, are man made laws. Of course if you ever saw some people naked, you would understand why there are such laws.:shocked:

So, not wearing underwear to church is not a sin....just don't shart!

Didn't Adam start wearing cloths because he ate from the Tree of Knowledge.
Wasn't the Tree of Knowledge off limits?

Some could say wearing cloths is a sin. I'm not one of them, however.
Some poeple are so ugly they should be burned at the stake for leaving the house with no bag on the head.

Christ's death fulfilled the Abrahamic covenant, fool! The laws of the old testament were put away and christ set up a new covenant and new law, etc. Even any lightly-educated bible scholar will tell you that.

How would you be able to see it? I mean most churches I've been in have high back benches which block most of the view below the chest. Then there's the other people there blocking a lot of the view too. Unless you turn around and she sitting directly behind you I can't see how you would be able to see anything.

Except that Jesus replaced all of the nit-picky Old Testament Laws with a much simpler new one that you still have to obey.
"Love others as you love yourself" which pretty much covers everything, and leaves no loopholes like the OT law did.
