P.S. Conservatives are people to you know!

BTW just curious...you did post your opinion first and I posted my response to your opinion. But did you at least read what I posted? I read what you posted

Of course I read what your posted...and I thought it was nonsense ;-) . Just kidding bro...I think you raise you up some good points as to my opinions...perhaps we may discuss this some other time...but theology torments my every second at this point of my life...so I'm happy when I don't have to debate.

Do conservatives not wear jewelry because they are conservative or because they believe the bible says they will go to hell if not?

I need to really add "j/k" more often. Sorry brother for the misunderstanding, but that was a joke...

Ok, thanks for clarifying that

If God doesn't have a problem with it, then I shouldn't either.

And it's hard to make the argument that God is ok with women wearing them, but not men. That's were human reasoning and conjecture comes in. But I believe God is a God who is consistent.... unlike us men, who ban stuff just because of our own human preferences, and then try to justify it with extra-biblical reasoning.

Personally, I think he qualifies as having "long" hair.

now wait a second. Is the hair cut or uncut? if it is cut then it is short hair but if not then it is long hair.

not so sure of that. The Bible mentions all types of adornment and earrings are mentioned and not necessarily with slaves.

The slave who loved his or her master could have his or her ear bore through and that indicated that they were a love slave but it does not necessarily mention that they wore any adornment in the hole left behind.

Exactly.

SO it is my opinion that we can bore a hole in our ear and wear adornment in it if we want. And since we are boring a hole in our ear for our love of our master (God almighty) why not just do it in both ears to signify we REALLY do not want to be free from him.
