I'm asking my pastor if that could be possible. I really don't want to sit in the back with the ones that are shabbily dressed and have filthy little kids running around. I think all the good looking and well dressed ones like me should be escorted up front and seated together. That way, we are an example to the rest of the parishioners.
What do you think?

it's just like saying all the rich please sit at the front and the rest who are poor please stay at the back. Maybe you could even suggest two separate aisle, the half where the rich and the well dressed sit and the other half for the poor and the shabby dressed.

Dear sweet irritating Donna, Of course the well-dressed parishioners should be seated up front. And those who donate more should get front row seats as well. After all, it's done at all those rock concerts (tho they're of Satan, of course). Bless your beautiful rotting soul;).
P.S. Love your questions. LOL.

I don't think that God is even looking at our clothes, He sees your spirit. He knows the ones that are just coming to church to show off, and the ones that are genuinely there out of love for Him. The most shabbily dressed is quite possibly the most genuine spirit there.

That's kind of a screwed up scenario.
To begin with that would promote one of the Seven Deadly Sins, Pride. Also it would add to the idea that segregation is a good thing. Put in that situation long enough a very sistinct polarity would develop and you just might be run through when the barbarianistic "dirty people" decide to revolt.

All the hot, good-looking blonds should be at the front. Do you think the minister wants to look at a bunch of geeks? P.S. Is there a whynotaskadolph on this site? With a small, black mustache, and hair on one side of his face. It could happen.

And where in the bible does it say that only those that flash around their wordily wealth should have any special seat in Gods house of worship. Or that they will get front row housing in Heaven.
Hypocrisy

Not according to the Bible.
Read this:
James 2
Favoritism Forbidden
1My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, don't show favoritism.
2Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in.
3If 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,"
4have you not discriminated among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?
5Listen, my dear brothers: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him?
6But you have insulted the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court?
7Are they not the ones who are slandering the noble name of him to whom you belong?
8If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself,"[a] you are doing right.
9But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers.
Unfortunately, some churches don't care about what the Bible has to say about anything.....

Yes of course. Put on your best dress and high heels. You're going to meet Jesus in church and you want to be sure everybody sees that! Don't hide your light under a bushel -- you go, girl.

I reckon god really doesn't give a S.H.I.T. what you're wearing to church. He's probably looking at your soul.
If your soul was dressed, how do you think it would look to him??????
Filthy kids huh.....
Front or back?????
