- He was a middle-eastern person, and a lot of them had beards, so he probably had one.
- I doubt he found time to shave while on the road all the time.
- While we're on the whole middle-east subject: I hate all these christian depictions of christ being caucasion (sp?) because he was from the middle east and they are mostly tan skined! I'm sorry, but jesus was not a white american prejudice kkk member!

Reps: 83 (power: 0) | | | I'm going to say that even though it doesn't matter, I sure think that the "sweet beard" idea posted in the first message sounds great. Not only was Jesus probably not able to shave on the road and living in a beard-oriented culture, but he was also a carpenter and Bob Vila and Norm Abram both have beards.
Beard or no beard though, I'm sure glad he came and I love him like crazy. |

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails... And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." |
