I don't have a direct quote. Only that he said we (the UPCI) have been all wrong on the issue and it needs to to stop.

In our ranks, isn't this like the pope saying, it's OK now?

You "heard".

"I don't have a direct quote".

"No documentation".


Hmmmm J/W under normal circumstances, would this be considered gossip?

:sshhh

I think the ones like Rico's are gross.

Hmmmm..........

I'm not sure if he said it in public addressof the sympossium or in one of them after church coversations.

I think it was in the sympossium, the way I heard it.

I guess it doesn't matter if the he said it or not. Most of us allready know there is NO direction given in the bible for a man to be clean shaven.

Some of us just can't admit it.

Hmmmm..........

Oh ... that's right ... we're talking about the non-bible based and manual-based requirement on men that want to be used by God ...

I'd post a pic of it but some people around here would have a field day with it, so I won't. I got a Grizzly Adams thingahappenin.

Doth not nature itself teach you that a man should have a beard?

Isn't the clean shaven look following after the "world" many years ago?

C'mon, Rico, don't be skeered.......

I ain't!
