I couldn't stomach the entire 12 pages... but IMO, the "length of hair" issue is mainstream protestantism's circumcision.

Do we have any reason to believe Christ wasn't long haired during His ministry?

We DO know that Christ had a beard, and the beard was significant to Him spiritually more than a specific "look" He was trying to acheive, so in relation to hair, if ANYONE is in danger of hell fire because of hair issues, it's the misguided clean shaven folks who ignore the example of Christ.

If you wanna be Christ like, you should look just like me.

If you all get a chance, check out "The Kite Runner"... there's a bit in there about what the Taliban folks do t those who don't have a beard... and a really intense scene of the stoning of a apir of adulterers... Christ brought freedom from this kind of legalism... what's up with embracing it?

After your baptism, you were supposed to get the official christian gnat strainer along with aids for camel swallowing. You didn't get yours?

As someone else who used to have hair that long, it also gets caught in everything... like your seat belt and your car door... [&:]


Your food, your mouth, your eyes. sigh . . . and Yes, I have had my long hair caught in the car door. Now that's hurts. [:o]

Why do all you traditionalists get your knickers in a knot over guys with long hair!
Samson had long hair and he certainly wasn't womanlike!!!

BTW, I have long hair and plan to keep it growing!




NZAmish -> RE: RE:Should men with long hair drink beer? (4/7/2008 5:17:33 AM)

Oh yeah I grow my hair long out of respect for my Irish and Scottish ancestors.
We had long hair and the morons we like to call English didn't like it.




tapestry -> RE: Should Men Have Long Hair? (4/7/2008 1:19:51 PM)

why should it matter?
God looks at the heart, not the outer person. Do not get hung up on apperances like the world does.




happyhippie -> RE: Should Men Have Long Hair? (4/7/2008 5:16:07 PM)

Short hair = better smarter Christians as soon as the barber's shears hit.
hair starts growing out = Christian starts getting dumb again
time to go back to barber

This reminds me (in reverse) of the Larry Norman lyric:

They say to cut my hair
They're driving me insane
I grew it out long
To make room for my brain

[:D]

Not only that but having long hair gives you the ability to kill armies with the jawbone of a donkey! Who wouldn't want that?

Vern, I'm sensing that you didn't mean that in a positive or supportive way.

PNJai -> RE: Should Men Have Long Hair? (4/9/2008 4:36:03 PM)

If i'm not mistaken weren't Nazarines forbidden to cut their hair? Jesus was a Nazarine.....Correct?

A Nazarene is someone from the city of Nazareth. A Nazarite, is someone who takes a special vow to God (Samson was one).

Jesus was a Nazarene, not Nazarite.




PNJai -> RE: Should Men Have Long Hair? (4/9/2008 5:48:13 PM)

Well then I was mistaken...I voted that it didn't matter anyway....It won't stop a man from entering Heaven if he's accepted Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior




Bluethread -> RE: Should Men Have Long Hair? (4/9/2008 5:55:23 PM)

That leads to the argument that having long hair while not on nazarite vow makes it harder to determine who is and who is not a nazarite. This is important since it would not be appropriate to serve them foods with grape products or intoxicating beverages as ingredients.

It could also be seen as taking credit for something one did not do, as in Ananius and Saphira.
