Are ya'll really strict about the facial hair in Canada? We aren't all that strict about that here.

Some men have said they felt it was a pride issue for them and shaved.
Most do shave, a good brother who attends a nearby UPCI Church has always worn a big bushy mustache-he does it to cover a cleft palette!

It is more of a thing in the African American community, most shave because it is the norm.

Even ones who don't go to Church shave.

Don't get for a second that I said that if you wear a beard you are gay!

I never said that, I only said that a high percentage are?
Is that one reason not to wear one.

I have friends both in and out of the Church who wear beards.
My uncle & his sons wear beards & are active in thier Trinity Pentecostal Church & are fine people.

Sorry Ron, I apologize for being rude.

I too know many good Christians with beards. I had one at one time and got rid of it just because it was a pain to take care of on a daily basis. And my wife wouldn't kiss me and you know what that means. So I figured it wasn't worth the price.

Again, I'm sorry for being rude. I shouldn't be rude even when I disagree w/somebody.

Hey Bro, I didn't take you for being rude, I hope I didn't come across as being
rude?

I know a great many Brothers, many who are better Christians than I who have beards.

I was just asking a question if there "may" be a reason that people are linking this to that.

If you look at Gay publications, pictures in the newspaper, pics of them celebrating thier lifestyle (remember Vancouver is called San Fran North)

Something to consider.
Okay a sign of manhood is gay? God puts the hair there .... and it's gay?

Gimme a break .... how long will this continue ... it's madness ....

Surely God had to know that we'd be considered gay or rebellious if we wore one but he has it grow incessantly on our faces ....

Remember, I only asked a question, not an accusation.
Also, God made the Rainbow did he not?

The Homosexual movement polluted it and made it a symbol of thier movement.
