Suit Required

[Poimen]

Rambo,

All I know is PG stated more than once here that he was being required (yes, he actually used that very term) or compelled to wear suits to at least specific events at IO and/or the IA. I don't feel like looking the references up. Be my guest, if you must.

Now, I know he didn't mean anything disrespectful by his statements. I'm not speaking for him, or in his defense really. I am simply addressing the sore thumb protruding out of the modern "progressive" COGOP.

It's like when TCOGers talk about standing for the original teachings, and not letting down the standard in regards to jewelry and then their woman have bejeweled shoes, hair bows, etc. and the men have gold plated, jewel studded watches, etc. -- but not a ring, bracelet, or necklace and yet declare emphatically they are opposed to and do not adorn the outward man.

Same kind of thing. Sticks out like mud on a white shirt.

okay - thanks Poimen, no offense was meant, and please forgive me if I did offend you. I just remember reading that it was an expectation, and even if he said requirement, he later said expectations.

I understand your POV. mud on a white shirt - hehehehe - pretty good. my bad, I was doing what I said not to do, in that I was equating recent issues TCOG "telling" me what COGOP believe, even though I tried to tell them it wasn't an accurate assessment. and this one.

in any case, thanks for clarifying for me.

NP brother. No offense here. Just glad I was able to clarify my intention and meaning.
