- While the examples given of shunning outsiders because of perceived uncleanliness are factual, they fail to convey the full reasoning behind the actions. E.g. one justification for members being forbidden from sex with non-members is the supposed "distraction" this would create in their relationship with Jesus. Also, System clothes were removed upon returning home in large part because clothes used outside to help them "blend in" with fashion norms were considered too "cool" and supposedly led to problems with pride, etc. --Monger 17:19, 21 Jun 2005 (CDT)
