A STORY WORTH REPEATING

NICOLE DUNLAP Beware of What You Wear.....

Obey Clothing Line [From Left]: “Cash for Chaos”; “Andre the Giant”; Obey Out of time Time Skull Shirt

I wanted to bring to light a very serious situation that has taken over our young (teenage) generation.

While visiting one of my favorite churches in the Inland Empire, I saw teenage boys walking around in shirts

by Obey Clothing. In particularly the Andre the Giant shirt The shirts were very creepy. I’m that type of

person that doesn’t like girls going to church in tight skimpy clothing, but I never thought I’d have an issue

with boys. Of course, we want them to pull there clothes up or not wear jeans as tight as their female

counterparts—which is quite ridiculous looking. However, I went to the website http:// obeyclothing.com

and saw how they try to bring awareness to organizations. There was a cute little doggy face t-shirt, kinda

makes you stop and think that it’s okay—fundraising and all. But no, I still re- member these kids from

church and their eerie t-shirts are imbedded in my memory. One was wearing the shirt in the center with

the wrinkly old face.

Westler Andre the Giant Has a Posse is a street art designed by Shepard Fairey created in 1989. Sirus (at

thedoggstar.com) posted a blog stating: “ [In] scriptures it says that the giants were the offspring of the

Fallen Angels, and the word used in the Bible as Giant, is the Hebrew Nephilim, which means Fallen Ones,

just like Lucifer is the main fallen one.”

Take what I have found as you will, just remember the next time you’re rocking a skull t-shirt, that

Proverbs 8:36 states, “But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul; All those who hate me love

death.” Tell us what you think about this article at [email protected].
