There have been numerous Christian women in the Miss America pageants, Miss Universe, etc.
I agree with Angel, that there are opportunities presented to witness to the other contestants. If nothing else, the Christian contestants have opportunity to pray for the other women in the pageants.
Alright! How about that daughter that refused to dance naked/half naked before the king(s)??? What verse of the scripture...cant remember.
Or are there similarities?
I think my intention wasnt clear on that issue of dancing thing. Sorry. I had wanted to tell us, there was a God-fearing woman who refused to dance. Reason? She said she wont defile her body - she wont get naked. So I was just trying to remember that verse. So while others danced, this woman refused to dance. She was not even punished
The real problem is not the contest but the fact that most men cannot control their minds. This is why most men have a problem with a streetwealker coming into the church. They should be able to freely but what do most churchs do, cover them up right away so noone is tempted, seems to me that they need to deal with the men that cannot look on them without lusting rather than shame the women coming in by this and drive them out of the church. God never intended people to get cleaned up before they come in.

farouk. I was thinking about you and your tats this morning when I saw a girl who was well attractive and well rather wearing some low hip clothing and had a tat on her back.lol. this thread also reminds of that image. the problem with that is as tog says. men don't watch beauty contest for the intelligent women but for the attractive ones. I feel as claudya does.
well but the problem with this is that Christians will go with the fashions of society if they must win with them. that is where I draw the line. but seriously. an attractive girl in a bikini telling us about jesus is kinda strange as the male organ isn't going allow the brain to function normally if you catch my drift. im not saying that wearing a bikini is a sin but well you know where I live and what I do see on the beach when I go there.I agree that some low hip clothing is over the top. In the end it's a question of context, I reckon.
Blessings.
