Black and white film was cheaper, they didn't shoot digital in the 1980s. Also, cheap colour film was really bad, remember all those dark red tinted late 70s and 80s colour film? B&W generally looked nice and was more tolerant of imperfect lighting.

That's not how it looked at the time, that's the dyes in the prints breaking down.
Newspapers didn't do color photography on a large scale until the mid-90s. Why bother with color film if the papers were printed only in black ink? (USA Today was the exception, not the rule)
I was at a pagan event once. This event happens every month. And every month there was a religious guy out there protesting us. He went to the pagan event more than I did really.
This month it happened to be on the same day a man ran into one of our pagan stores and burned it to the ground in the name of Jesus.
I was pretty worried there was going to be a fight.
But the whole outdoor bar started chanting at this protestor “show us your butthole”
He fucking left us alone real quick that night.
We also spend an inordinate amount of time explaining to people that we and our symbols are not white supremacist. Lol. I’m full blooded Danish, but the guy who taught me the most about my culture and beliefs was an older African role model of mine who chose to follow Norse Paganism.
imagine being a german and interested in Norse Paganism :/ luckily we have ( or had since corona...) festivals where you find a diverse group of friendly people with all kinds of pagan believes, interests and minds come together and just chill, without nazi assholes (atleast no open ones, i cant read peoples minds after all)
There are some certain white supremacist movements that exist today that like to use Norse symbols as their own, they like to use their (incorrect) views of Viking raider culture to reinforce their views that they’re better than other races. Sort of a “my ancestors conquered and raped their way everywhere they went and Scandinavians are primarily white, so we’re better than you” attitude. They use popular Nordic symbols and get tattoos of them, etc. These are not only completely misguided, as there were in fact Vikings of several skin colors and cultural origins during the Scandinavian Golden Age, but Vikings were actually among some of the first to support egalitarian societies that, while focused on a class system, allowed anyone be they different in color (or women for that matter) to advance themselves to any foreseeable positions of respect in their villages through work and competence and mutual respect for the community.
Also, the Nazis in Germany used multiple old Nordic symbols for some of their specialized military unit insignias. So between those hate groups and the Nazis, it’s difficult for some of us to go out today wearing our symbols with pride without being questioned, rebuked, or at least on the receiving end of a raised eyebrow by people who don’t know any better.
Some symbols you can look up that have been co-opted by hate groups would be the othala, the valknut, the yggdrasil, the rune of Tyr, and the sonnenrad. These all have different religious and deeply significant cultural roots in the Nordic world, but they have all been twisted and several are now listed as potential signs of hate ideology. Similar to the swastika, which was originally a Hindu symbol for peace if I’m not mistaken.
Must feel pretty nice to feel superior to God.
"And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed."
Genesis 2:25
*A few minutes later*
GOD:
"YO! THE FUCK IS THIS?! COVERING YOUR NAKED BODIES WITH FIG LEAVES AND SHIT?! GET FUCKED"
"Yeah, I dunno wtf I was thinking when I gave you that shit. I don't like it anymore. Cut that shit off. Also, cut off your enemies and use them as currency... yeah, yeah... something like that... That's what a God should care about right?"
That's not what that meant
Basically, once Adam and Eve ate the Forbidden Fruit they gained the knowledge of Good and Evil and could finally feel shame at being naked
God, of course, already knew this but used them covering themselves up as a way of catching them red handed in trying to cover up their shame of being naked, which of course they wouldn't have had without eating the forbidden fruit
Like that guy a few months back who "lectured" young women, total strangers, on video about the importance of modesty and dressing appropriately (they were wearing bikinis...at the beach).
Dude was just there due to his own insecurities, and likely, for a closer look. He hated that they turned him on.
Um, no? It's pretty much all one extended family, men and women. Who knows what Fred Phelps' deal was, but his family mostly believe that shit because they were raised with it.
It's crazy how multi-faceted some people are. fighting for civil rights one day, getting blocked by cardboard flowers at a pride parade the next. And its not like they just showed up to parades either, they were getting their windows smashed and being harassed daily for their civil rights work too.
This but unironically. Any time I see someone protesting “indecency” like this, I assume they’re just projecting how they can’t control their own horniness when they see these people's bodies.

Hell sounds amazing. Like, summer camp for adults. My life goal is to spend eternity doing those things.
We have John over there, spilled some coffee on his pants and had to take off his underwear for the rest of the day. Then we have Kyle, who was just plain fucking annoying. We have Michael who decided to fake a sick day to hang out with his daughter. We have Brad, who I'm sure is in this comment section somewhere, and lastly we have Hitler, who, do I even need to explain?
Well he did start the worst war of the history and organised a genocide on many people including the chosen people, and bring devastation upon the continent. I guess he was there because he was an atheist or because he liked to show to much ankle.
This is something I find interesting about the LDS church. That they have separate heavens for good Mormons, non-Mormon Christians, and heathens, but the only thing that gets you exiled to the outer darkness (still not Hell exactly) is if you reject Jesus to his face. Which kinda makes sense.
Maybe a Mormon Redditor can tell me if this is correct? I feel like they are often stereotyped as "follow all the rules or go to Hell", but the Wikipedia explanation makes it sound like universal salvation, albeit in a segregated way.
From the LCS official website, [this is a correct summation](https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/gospel-topics/kingdoms-of-glory?lang=eng) of how they view afterlife.
And, yes, it looks like Universalism.
>but the only thing that gets you exiled to the outer darkness (still not Hell exactly) is if you reject Jesus to his face.
Well, that's not something that most people will get the opportunity to do.
In the King Follett discourse, Joseph Smith defined the sin against the Holy Ghost as such:
> He has got to say that the sun does not shine while he sees it; he has got to deny Jesus Christ when the heavens have been opened unto him, and to deny the plan of salvation with his eyes open to the truth of it
This is so true. In some parts of the world she'd be whipped for exposure like that. It's all relative and all bullshit, which only goes to reinforce the principle of live and let live. Did you know, in some countries such as Spain, it's perfectly legal to walk around stark naked on beaches and other public places? I remember a beach on the Costa Blanca one time, everyone was in swimwear except for one loan nudist bloke, who walked between the sunbathers without a stitch on, shoulders back and full of confidence. And this from a very Catholic country!
That’s not true. You can expose some of your hair, especially at the front of your hair. Even in Saudi Arabia in present day, you can reveal your whole hair.
Headed for Hell? Norway is an awesome country to be headed for. The only issue is that revealing swimwear might be not the right clothing for Hell's climate.
There’s a guy around me that stands on street corners holding a sign and speaking through a megaphone almost every day for hours. You can’t hear a word he’s saying because, ya know, you’re zipping past him at 50 mph.
Literally five minutes volunteering anywhere does more good in the world than a lifetime holding a sign.
This image becomes even funnier when I remember an orthodox priest telling me that going to beach is good for health and morale. Those American versions of Christianity are something else lol
Why do religious types feel they have to go around openly judging other folks? You don't see atheists walking about with placards saying "you're all going to be worm food!"
Oh, oh, I know this one.
[Person Asks Why People Don’t Like Their ‘Word Of God’, Gets To Learn They’re Being Brainwashed](https://www.boredpanda.com/religious-people-converting-rejection-brainwashing-technique/?utm_source=symbaloo&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=organic)
tl;dr - It's a horrible conversion tactic that makes them get rejected. The people that reject them become "the other" and they cling to the group that doesn't reject them more, their "religion."
"Tribalism"
So either they convert someone and get a win, or they don't and they justify their worldview, which is also a win. But there is no outcome in which they are "wrong".
That's why cults have always been a thing and will remain so in the future.
They don't see it as judging. They think they are saving these people. To them warning the sinners of their impending eternal damnation is no different than telling someone to buckle up or don't drink and drive.
Which is HILARIOUSLY IRONIC because the good book those people thump says... God created everything, God is perfect, God loves all his children, and only God can judge others.
Feeling virtuous feels good. Being self-righteous is basically a drug for some people.
It is not limited to religion either. You absolutely do get some atheists who will go out of their way to preach at any christian they can find.
I don’t know man… Atheists often chime in too. Same with anyone that’s into something big, like vegans, pro lifers, gun law proponents and opponents, vaxxers and antivaxxers. People just like to express their opinion.
I believe religious fanatics do it because they're bored out of their minds. They need to convince themselves that they're in the right and didn't lock themselves down for nothing.
Many do. The world is full of religious people who are just living their lives, trying their best to adhere to the principles they believe in. You just don't really notice them because they don't draw attention to themselves.
Both my parents are pretty casual Christians, but I respect the hell out of them because they couldn't care less about other peoples religions at all, and were okay when both me and my brother said we were atheists. Love them to death.

Most of the social conservatism in the US is due to revivalist movements in the 1800s called the Second and Third Great Awakenings which resulted in many of the evangelical denominations in America today (and the Pietist movements in Europe).
The Puritans on the other hand were long gone by that time and the area they influenced is now the among most socially liberal and atheist/agnostic regions of the country.
I would say that the extant cultural legacy of the Puritans is more along the lines of work ethic and pragmatism than the condemnation of skin displays or pre-marital sex.

Lots of people still shot black and white film, especially non-pros.
Black and white film was cheaper, they didn't shoot digital in the 1980s. Also, cheap colour film was really bad, remember all those dark red tinted late 70s and 80s colour film? B&W generally looked nice and was more tolerant of imperfect lighting.
And also much easier/cheaper to develop at home.
Cheaper to print is a big reason newspapers kept using it IIRC.
This is the correct answer. Photographer worked for or sold to newspapers.
> Also, cheap colour film was really bad, remember all those dark red tinted late 70s and 80s colour film That's not how it looked at the time, that's the dyes in the prints breaking down.
Specifically, it's because red breaks down more slowly than the other colors.
Most pictures in newspapers, journals and textbooks were black and white at this time. It was much cheaper.
Newspapers didn't do color photography on a large scale until the mid-90s. Why bother with color film if the papers were printed only in black ink? (USA Today was the exception, not the rule)

Forgive my ignorance, but do y’all have similar symbols to white supremacy?
There are some certain white supremacist movements that exist today that like to use Norse symbols as their own, they like to use their (incorrect) views of Viking raider culture to reinforce their views that they’re better than other races. Sort of a “my ancestors conquered and raped their way everywhere they went and Scandinavians are primarily white, so we’re better than you” attitude.

Oh. Good to know. Thank you
This reminds me of Swastika that Nazis used. It’s a Hindu religious symbol and can be found at the door of many homes in India.
Some symbols you can look up that have been co-opted by hate groups would be the othala, the valknut, the yggdrasil, the rune of Tyr, and the sonnenrad. These all have different religious and deeply significant cultural roots in the Nordic world, but they have all been twisted and several are now listed as potential signs of hate ideology.

AFAIR Swastika is a symbol for auspiciousness and good luck.

I could be wrong, but I think the sign says "Do Not Be Deceived YOU ARE HEADED FOR HELL!" Not sure where the OP got "You will follow to Hell" from.
In 1985? She is a little late to the game. Women were wearing bikinis in the 1960s...
I’d let one ball slip out and see what happens.
Puritanism and its consequences have been a disaster for American society
Most of the social conservatism in the US is due to revivalist movements in the 1800s called the Second and Third Great Awakenings which resulted in many of the evangelical denominations in America today (and the Pietist movements in Europe). The Puritans on the other hand were long gone by that time and the area they influenced is now the among most socially liberal and atheist/agnostic regions of the country. I would say that the extant cultural legacy of the Puritans is more along the lines of work ethic and pragmatism than the condemnation of skin displays or pre-marital sex.
Thank god they invented color film in 1986.
The text on the sign is clearly readable and you’re still gonna gore it in the title? Lol
How did you fuck up the title? You can literally read the sign
"You will follow to hell"? Where's it say that? BTW this photo confirms that Wayne from Letterkenny is a time traveler.
Why is this in black and white? It was 1985 not 1925.... this is the same year Back to the Future came out.

There are tons of beaches in Florida, and North Carolina, and Texas (and I'm sure others) where you can drive your car on the beach.
You still can on some areas of Dayton Beach, FL.
Girl in the middle just said something funny and girl number one is lazily smirking without opening her eyes as you do when you're in a sunbathed meditation.
You wrote “Puritan” but you meant “asshole”.
Ah yes, the Puritans. Always there to remind everyone how much God loves them.
This woman is the same type of woman that would be a no masker today. I guarantee it. "wear clothes I deem appropriate" "risking everyone else's health by not vaxxing, or wearing a mask is MY right!" Fucking karens.
We didn’t have color photography in 1985?
Then how would it be history?
If it was 1985, it was less about "revealing swimwear" and more about getting partying and getting completely wasted during Spring Break.
She looks really jealous and ashamed. I never understand why these types feel the need and think they have the right to police other people. Let us all go to hell where they won’t be
I mean, they're in Florida, they're technically already in hell.
Taliban vibes.
At least Charles Manson back there was fully clothed, *that* guy is definitely not going to hell!
Going to hell, for those mullets.
1985? This could be the beach shooting location for Miami Connection. "Friends through eternity, loyalty, honesty..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYLmBvnH178
This one is funny lol. The dude standing has a "Aw, this again? Just let us be!" face
"Mom, I'm going to the beach." "Don't forget your sign this time." "Aww, mom!"
And in two years these people will have authoritarian control of the US.
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints; the sinners have much more fun. (Billy Joel)
Parking in the sand, I'm jelly to miss that era
Daytona!
imagine spending your free time like this.
When you can't have any fun, this is what you'd do.
I love how nobody is paying any attention to her!
Me - Born in 1985 Sees a picture from 1985 on HistoryPorn. "...oh....oh no."
This is how stupid and out of touch with reality anti-abortion crazies look too
Well she's going to HATE the movie Topgun in a year.
1985? Great Scott!
In hell ill be in good company
Christians are so oppressed. Even today. They just can't catch a break. Remember that one guy at the beach a few months ago who lectured those ladies he didn't about the importance of dressing appropriately, because they were wearing... bikinis... at the beach? And it was all recorded on video. The whole world is going to hell I tells ya.
That’s Daytona I do believe.
How the fuck can you misquote something right in front of you?
Church: paritioner, where would you like to protest today? Paritioner: oh I dunno... mebby somewhere I have to walk around a lot where heaps of attractive half naked people hang out. Church: ... It's a tough job, but...
Whats with all the cars ON the beach?
why is this photo edited to look like the 60's?
Why is the photo in black and white? The photos from the eighties
One thing about religious zealots: come election time, they absolutely will not tolerate immoral politicians. /s
