I assume christ had long hair, and thus wouldn't have issue with his kids having long hair

Christ was a Jew and, historically, the Catholic Church has had a shit ton of problems with Jews.*

If and when it goes, it's going to be his choice...not mine and definitely not some...

so your son has a choice over his hair, does he also have a choice over what he eats?

but why do they think that having a beard affects your ability to do the job?

IlliniSax05
January 16, 2024, 10:58:49
Honestly, I think it's impossible to regulate what beards are "acceptable" and which are unkept

it's not impossible, just potentially more difficult

someone deciding to change their hair is different than it "having to go"

Yep. I grew my hair out to my shoulders at 18 and didn’t cut it until 30

snipes824
January 16, 2024, 10:23:53
I think the grooming/maintenance factor is usually the ultimate deciding factor*

Yeah, 70% that and 30% you just want to try another look after a decade of something else*

the only ones I can think of are this one and the one with his grandma wanting him to cut it
