We love he and his wife, Ruthy unconditionally and love the acceptance they receive from the folks @ NLC. I really do love these people. They have received the "cold shoulder" from more than one church for being different. They actually asked "permission" to attend and wondered if it would be all right if Goths got saved to bring them to church! So sad, they even had to ask. I told them, "God forbid that someone would come to church seeking Jesus that looks weird!" :

I have to admit, I lean toward the take of my old Tae Kwon Do teacher on this stuff.
I have seen him rip pony tails off and earrings out of men's ears...
... can't say I believe that is Christlike either though.
