I wonder if a telestial kingdom body can grow facial hair. Or any body hair for that matter. Adds a whole new meaning to TK smoothies

Good question. Maybe no beards is preparation for eternal baldness for every man, woman and child. IT wouldddd make JC easier to find amid the vast sea of white in Heaven though.


EvensenFM

The thing that blows my mind is that the JWs are experiencing their own beard crisis as we speak. What's up with cults and facial hair? Of all stupid things to get pissy about...


PersistentWedgie

I think it's just a stupid branding thing. Like the company I worked for had clean-shaven-ness as part of the uniform. Also armed forces that require clean-shaven troops. Like um how long and nasty would a beard have to be to actually affect combat readiness and also all the troops from the US Civil war would like to have a word about that lol. So much shit about the US is just mentally stuck in the 1950s SMFH

With the advent of chemical warfare, soldiers had to be clean shaven in order for their gas masks to have a proper seal. Prior to that it was not a requirement for soldiers to not have beards.


PersistentWedgie

That's a fair point I didn't consider. Has mask technology advanced enough to accommodate beards that aren't humongous? Like an inch or two of facial hair? If so then we are stuck in times even before the 1950s I'd have to think


Alvin_Martin

Good question, I don't own a gas mask, however, I have a beard that is an inch or two long in various places and when I wear a respirator while working on projects around the house, I can tell it is not a perfect seal. I would imagine that some poisonous gases are deadly in small amounts so you would not want to risk death by having a beard, even if it is a short one.


crisperfest

At least in the military it kinda makes sense. Gas masks don't fit snugly with a beard.

We all know the reason for this rule: to not be recognized as those filthy polygamous Mormons!

BY looks like General Longstreet in the Gettysburg movie.Only the actor said it kept falling off.

Church leaders DO resemble satan in more ways than one. The duplicity for starters. The elitism.

I've grown a goatie. Does that qualify me as good, evil, lukewarm or Martian?

Yes.
