The idea of colors comes from many years ago when there were still
red-light districts with actual redlights in the windows to indicate the
bordellos. and the color red was meant to signify a loose woman at one
time. It is safe to say that this is not the way it is but if a Pastor
grew up thinking it was sin, to him it IS! If he felt it strong enough to
ask his members to comply, the members SHOULD TRY to comply. Now to be
unreasonable and ask to abstain red on the job, that is a strange case
indeed. (Unless the red was a Santa costume- LOOK AT THE SMILEY BEFORE
FLAMING PLEASE!)

Sister I think you factually answered the objections and even used
scriptural references (paraphrase is ok by me) Nice job and good
discussion. Don't apologize for having questions.
