comparing hair to taking up snakes is ridiculous.

Says who ... say you?

At least they are carrying out what they can literally read as being a command.

Actually Mark, I was just talking to my presbyter about the comparison you think is so "out there."

I think the magic hair thing is a twin sister to snake handling.

I think that would fly in the face of what the org is currently promoting. We are trying desperately to prove the WPF wrong. Trying to prove we are not liberal.

An article like that would give them fodder.
? many very conservitive men who believe strongly in uncut hair, do NOT believe in the Magic Hair doctrine that seems to have gained a foot hold.

I dont see why one would need to compromise the position of uncut hair to offer opposition to MH.

Don't judge these people, surly God will honor their faith. They even have scripture to back it.........................

And snake-handling actually has more Biblical basis.

At least snake handlers don't source witchcraft.
