Who wears the pants in the family?

I knew we had some conservative people here in North Dakota, but I never realized there were some still living in the 18th century. I was taken aback when I read the following letter to the editor in this morning's Fargo Forum from a Reverend in Hannaford, North Dakota . For a town who's motto is "A Community of Progress & Proud Heritage", they sure have some pretty backwards looking folks. Here's the text of his crazy letter.

Rev. Dennis Anundson letter: Women in men's clothes is an evil
The Forum - 06/02/2005
There is one evil so prevalent that few, if any, preachers have mentioned, and that is: women dressed in men's apparel. It is an evil that is evident in women of all ages, shapes and sizes. Very seldom do you see a woman or a girl wearing a dress.

The word of God says in Deuteronomy 22:5, "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment. For all that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God."

Being an abomination to God carries the penalty of eternal hell fire. For we read in Revelation 21:8, "But the fearful and unbelieving and the abominal and murderers and whoremongers and sorcerers and idolators and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone."

Now I think all women should be told this, so they can give up this abominable practice so they will not lose their souls over it.

Rev. Dennis Anundson
Hannaford, N.D.
