I did too - put in photo contest and got that page, but didn't see where the previous entries were.

This was discussed when it came out ... been verified many times ....

Just run a search in the AFF archives... I just posted the pic ...

Right click and view the properties of the picture ... it's still on their server ... if no longer viewable to the public in their gallery.

If you clicked on the link, it did bring you to the UPC.org site. Read the URL of the link.

I was expecting an entire web page not just a small picture.

A column from the Hartford Courant:

Religions that require a special costume for the rank and file have always given me pause. I'm not talking about the high priests, the organizational inner sanctum. I'm talking about the regular people. A friend of mine calls it the Funny Hat Club.

I guess that's one reason why I'm a Protestant Christian. We dress goofy because we feel like it, not because we'll be closer to God. If you believe like the Catholics that God is everywhere, then you have to believe that God can see through your clothes anyway.

this is just creepy to me. if u don't cut it...fine and dandy...but this is borderline unbiblical. or rather extra biblical...adding to the Word. a well known evangelist came to our church telling a story of being in a ladies conference where they instructed the older women w/uncut hair to take it down and lay their hair on the younger women to pray for them. so glad our pastor doesn't preach that mess. i know the bible speaks of laying on of hands and annointing cloths but laying on of hair?! NOOO!

u know, i find it funny that some (like flds cult) and some upc even are of the mindset that the more conservative your appearance, the more holy you are inside. i'm thinking of the muslims over in the mid east where all you see are eyes...or maybe nuns of the rcc. both extremely modest/conservative and lost as lost can be. not saying it wouldn't matter if we parade around in bikinis, but if our goal everyday is to look as "pentecostal" as possible, then we've missed the boat. i try to just look like a christian...not a pentecostal.

i hate that the term "worldly" is always associated with the outward. true, we shouldn't be consumed with looking like hollywood, but if your heart is of stone, you are judgemental, a gossip, a liar, etc. then it doesn't matter if you have hair to your knees, you are being worldly. or girls that don't wear a stitch of makeup, never cut their hair, but will spend HOURS findinig the right outfit and doing their hair for youth camp. they have devoted more time to vanity than the 5 min it takes to put on a little makeup. it just doesn't make sense to me sometimes.

Thanks for the article, I liked this statement I agree: Fact is, the most holy and religious regular people I know wouldn't stand out in a crowd. You wouldn't know their godliness until they opened their mouths.

I believe the very soul of us is our words... From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh...

In the beginning was the Word, The Word became flesh...

When that Word "dwells" in or governs us... everyone should know by our words and actions that goes forth who we belong to.
