Rules, Pt. 2

2) NO WEARING SWEATPANTS
Ok, this one just totally came out of left field. All of the other rules have had meaning behind them, but this one is just oppressive. I think they cited their reasoning behind this one was that sweatpants are not professional enough attire. What the heck? We're a school, not an office. Here's the deal, I don't even wear sweatpants, I've never really liked them. But the fact that the administration feels the need to ban them makes me mad. Now, the only reason I would stop doing something is if it's a stumbling block to my fellow brother or sister's walk with Jesus. For example: some people choose to drink alcohol. There's nothing wrong with drinking if you're over 21 and you don't drink in excess. If I went out to dinner with a friend who chooses not to drink, I would opt out of drinking to not cause a fellow brother in Christ to stumble. Point being: sweatpants are not Spiritual stumbling blocks. If my wearing sweatpants causes someone to sin, I wouldn't wear them. NEWS FLASH: Wearing sweatpants isn't sinful, it's just an asinine rule...
