Thiruvananthapuram: A video has gone viral showing a priest in Kerala saying he doesn't feel like permitting in church the women who wear jeans.

While addressing a Christian convention, Father Sharlom said that he often wonders, "Why is that thing (women) even in church?"

"There are times when you don't feel like giving communion to these girls in church or even allowing them in church. The reason is their jeans. They will have a mobile in hand. She won't even comb her hair or tie it up with a ribbon. She will let her hair down."

"Why is that thing (woman) even in church, I don't understand...There are men who come out of a convention and tell me that despite their self-control, when they see these semi-naked women, they are forced to commit sin. If your dressing entices grandfathers and youths, you are sinning," said Father Sharlom.

The video was aired on a Christian channel and uploaded on YouTube around a year back. However, the video was in news again after a Catholic priest in Kerala was arrested for allegedly raping a 17-year-old girl, who subsequently gave birth to a baby boy.
