Oh, so that's what Lampshades on Fire is all about! Been listening to that gal CCM band Modest Church Mouse and never put two & two together.

You missed one situation that you need to address with your next addition: is there a baptism? We know what the early church fathers taught for everyone involved in the baptism. Of course, if she's just using her hands as a suit already, she's pretty much there and just needs to move them/have them moved.

Also, I think you've overlooked how married women have it a lot easier. They belong to their husbands and their body is technically the same as his body. So, technically, if he's wearing a suit, he's got her covered and she doesn't need to bother with anything more than that.

For an unmarried woman, it might at first seem unfair. But, not to worry. She belongs to her father, so her father wearing a swimsuit has her technically covered, too. If she doesn't have a father, her church elders can suffice (and they'll be "dressed" for the baptism, anyway).

Can we wear a regular swimsuit if we aren't at all hot? Oh right, I forgot, we HAVE to be smokin hot like the Bible commands in that verse about the lukewarm women being spit out.
