Years ago you could really tell the religious women by how ugly they were. They wore no makeup, long dresses, a bun... and a face full of irritation! If a women came through the doors of a church with makeup on and pants, the other women would suck all the air out of the church and whisper "Jezebel!" It was crazy. Everything was a sin to them and the men weren't any better themselves, everything that went wrong in a man's life the women was the blame for that too.
It was so bad in the church when I was a child all the people seemed to talk about was what others shouldn't be doing and wearing. They were so focused on the small, insigificant details of the outward appearence that they forgot about the real life-changing message of Jesus Christ. Christianity stopped being about Jesus, the Person, and started being about judgment and public opinion.
1 Samuel 16:7
...for the LORD seeth not as a man seeth;
for man looketh on the outward appearence, but the LORD looketh on the heart"
