Imagine:
A group of brethren deserted me on campus because i started wearing eye glasses.
A pastor saw me on jean trousers and queried: "If you wear jean trousers, then what do you teach others?"
A pastor started wearing eye glasses recently,then another pastor started accusing him of having joined a secret cult.
A brother came inbox to counsel me against losing my salvation,just because he realized i loved football.
I heard a great preacher recently speaking against perming her, and using of iPad to preach.

Learn to deal with your sentiments; What you don't like or what you don't do might not necessarily be wrong. Your sentiments are lines of preference and disgust occasioned by your person,background and exposure. Its got nothing to do with scriptures. Trust me,if you grow a little,you will change your mind.
Be careful not to attempt to impose your sentiments on everyone around. A great father of faith in Nigeria imposed his sentiments on his people many years ago when he referred to TV as "devil's box". Many years down the line, he realized he was all wrong.The fact that you burned your certificate when you sensed the call of God on you doesn't mean you should start teaching everyone to "burn his bridge".
Your turn off could just be another man's favorite. Your life is never the perfect standard, so quit trying to squeeze everyone into your small mould.
