The Pastor met me for breakfast on Monday morning and said that someone had seen my web page and that I had facial hair in some of the pictures. I said that is true but when I go into places that do not have facial hair or wear jewelry or whatever, I honor their customs and traditions and I shave before I get there. He asked me if I had planned to grow the facial hair (a very short goatee) back and I said yes. He said, well - This Revival is over, you can pack and check out of the hotel today! WOW! Was I surprised and sad as I thought this man had good sense! Unbelievable! He left there soon after the meeting and has not pastored again. What is wrong with people?

Well, in my opinion
1. the pastor had a right to cancel the revival
2. it's sad that he felt that way
