I was pulled over or a burned out tail light and the cop did exactly this to me. I was returning from snowboarding, had long hair and admittedly looked a bit like a pothead but at the time had never actually smoked. He profiled me, threatened me with a K9 unit if I didn't fess up and thankfully since I knew I was clean I had the guts to tell him off. Yet it scares me to know that I may have caved if I had anything on me.

I have both long hair from my nostril and chin!

So where do you get that homosexuality is a sin? St Paul? The guy who thinks guys should not have long hair, and women should shut up and learn from their husbands at home?

Good points.

It's not universal, but for the most part, when gay 'marriage' is put to a vote in the USA, it loses. California's Prop 8 comes to mind, and I believe in the 90s in Hawaii--at the time the state most likely to legalize it--'gay marriage' failed to pass by a large margin.

It's possible others oppose gay marriage simply because it's not traditional marriage (e.g. also oppose polygamy) or simply "something new".

Has anyone surveyed gays themselves to discover if the majority in that community is even concerned over marriage rights?

Your logic is sound, but I've got a feeling it's a media distortion (from all sides -- polarization and controversy sell newspapers) that a majority of Christians believe homosexuality is morally wrong. I think they mostly put it in the same category as men not having long hair and so on. I'd like to find some numbers though (a 5-minute Google search turned up nothing useful).
If I'm wrong, then CNN is giving undeserved airtime to an author who calls a majority of Christians hypocrites.
Regardless, yes, CNN are hypocrites themselves, considering the first "N" in their name stands for "News".>> ^quantumushroom:
The Bible states that homosexuality is wrong.
A majority of Christians believe homosexuality is wrong.
Therefore, Christians are hypocrites because they ignore other parts of the Bible ignored by most everyone, such as hair length.

The real hypocrisy here is moral relativists at the Commie "News" Network accusing anyone else of selective morality.

His interpretation is incorrect. There are several passages in the Bible which condemn homosexuality, both in the Old and New Testaments, most notably in Leviticus, Corinthians (written by Paul), and Romans (also written by Paul). As Paul (and most Christians at that time) was a Hebrew, he would have been referring to the Hebrew law derived from the Old Testament.
The passage mentioned in the video above is most likely referring to Corinthians, one of Paul's letters that contains references to both of homosexuality and the hair issue. It should be noted that the passage referring to homosexuality is what Paul refers to as "unrighteousness," or actions that will result in damnation, most notably for those who are Christians that still participate in these actions. This is important to note, because, if I recall correctly, the first letter Paul wrote to the Corinthians was one to admonish them for their significant deviations from Christian beliefs. He was pointing out sins that were occurring amongst their own membership, especially in the first part of his letter.
The second half of this letter, in which the references to hair can be found, consists more of guidelines for a more holy life for the members of the Corinthian church. This is more of a cultural constraint, since during this period of time, it was accepted that men wore their hair short and women wore theirs long. Those wearing their hair otherwise were rebelling against societal norms, which Paul contended was not the Christian attitude that should be displayed. For modern Christians, this passage states that going against societal norms is perhaps not the correct attitude a Christian should take.
Now some modern Christians are a little more literal in their interpretation of this guideline. My own church, for example, is a bit more strict and does follow the whole "men=short hair, women=long hair" deal, but it depends on the church's interpretation. (Also, I'm simplifying here, as there's a bit more to that passage than just how you look to others, but I'll keep it at that for now.)

So what does this all mean? Dudley's example was an incorrect one. Perhaps he misspoke, or perhaps he did get some of his research incorrect. He is right that many Christians are somewhat hypocritical in their actions. I certainly have had my own issues in this area. However, it does not mean that just because they are hypocritical in one area, they should be hypocritical in another. Better to correct the issue at hand than to bring another issue into the mix.

Much better with long hair! Either way, she's cute.

His long hair and his sandals are what give him his powers.

And he wore a dress (for lack of knowledge of what the garment he wore is actually called), had long hair and a beard and hung out with a prostitute and 12 other guys.

I rented cosmos from my local library when I was a long hair hippy who wore a back pack everywhere he went. Good show to see.

Pure awesome, though it is weird seeing her with long hair!

Surely not a good idea to do that with any hair not protected, let alone really long hair. eia?


I don't know about the eia, but I think it's so awesome that he didn't cover it up. He looks like a blazing viking from hell and he's about to kick some ass.

Hrm, why does Fry still have that long-haired guy on the show?

What I took away from this video is the epic combover/ tying the long hair over the looooooooong forehead/bald scalp from the lead singer. Gotta remember it for when my time comes and my long hair melts away.
