Frist of all, i respect every pastors right to set a dress code for the platform. that is no differnet than the workplace doing so and mine does.

second, beyond the above, everything should be decent and in order so scraglly is OUT.


beyond that, the bible says dont even trim your beard so anyone trying to claim a scriptural reference point is silly.

I am a pastor and my rule on this is that beards or mustaches are not preached against neither are they encouraged.But if one has one it is to be kept clean,well kept so as to not draw undue attention to oneself.

So you allow it on your platform ?


TRIPPY, you are a UPC pastor, why is it still preached against if most say it is not a sin ?

I think we talked about this before off forum and i vividly recall you saying it was your conviction against facial hair. nowz the time to explain why

It is NOT a sin.

It is a standard set.

I don't like beards for the most part, but IF you have one please it keep trimmed nice and neat.

I am far more worried about women who wear short short sleeves and do not shave their armpits
