Re: Another HMH Miracle: Did I do this?

How does a church site recommend its visitors to visit the HMH site ... straightfaced?

So weird.
You've got that right. I guess, if you want a loved one to avoid being deployed you should pick up scissors?

If I was the pastor of a group of people struggling with this issue I'd give them your link.

But you do have a point. Could this be some sort of "troll action?"

It seems to me that she probably had heard of your site or otherwise had heard the phrase being thrown around and she just internalized it without much thought. As A.Q.P. pointed out, this whole story seems to have been motivated by a bunch of emotion and little thought.

Don't get me wrong, I wish the family well and hope the young soldier does well in his service, wherever that service takes him.

But I didn't cut it!! So surely it'd still be holy??

Maybe when she was picking up those scissors God was honoring her faith to break free from man made traditions...

What do you think?





(j/k!!)
I think if you find a market for it, I'll save you the hair from the roller brush of my vacuum cleaner just to help you make more money. After all, they sell all kinds of stuff through religious mailings and on TBN. Offer it as a gift for their offering. Definitely a unique idea... quick get a patent on it before someone else beats you to it.

Sorry.... I guess I've had a little too much caffiene this morning.

That's the cause and effect logic that has ... led to this madness.

We might have something here! Between me and my daughters alone, we'd have enough hair to make several pillows a day.

If people can sell holy water, why not holy hair?
