    Father Bill, I must confess that I've fallen away several years since but if you used the words, "And likewise after supper he took the quaich...." with that Laphroaig I might be tempted enough to rejoin.

    I've found that most people who attack others for their "sinful" way are usually an expert in sinning. They use it as a way to divert attention from what they do wrong.

    Seems to me that if something were to cause a man to be more 'manly' then, by default definition that something would be a manly item. Since numerous studies have shown that the wearing of loose clothes enhances the virility (fertility) of a man then such clothing would be manly. As a kilt certainly fits into that arena of 'loose' clothing then it naturally follows that it must be manly. Where is the sin in making a man more manly?
    Studies have shown that women who gain a few pounds live longer than men who mention it.

    Personally I just ignore the ravings of religious fanatics (unless they threaten the lives of innocent people) and this is one idiot who should be ignored. Of course The Kilt has always been MALE attire and there is nothing effeminate about it.
    The Kilt is my delight !

    OK then, but can I bring my quaich? It might empty your bottle.

    Och, Bill, you're no tryin' tae pull rank again! Besides, 'who can forgive sin but God alone?'

    You haven't missed much except some silliness - and I am sure the article will be popping up again before long - these things tend to be more difficult to eradicate than bindweed.

    Nice photos for your avatar and profile, by the way.

    Do I need to worry about the collection of lines and dashes in your signature?
