Men who shave will be lost!! To prove my point look at Aaron in the old Testament and Jesus in the new Testament. You must be Christlike and He apparently had a beard..

I know, right. It just makes me tired.

To them it is a sin to wear a ring, but is it a sin for you to remove yours? If it is, then you are both at an impasse, but if you can remove your ring in preference to your brother, then it's probably a good thing to do to avoid offense.
Could be. In certain contexts! ;)

I say this merely as an example because we would never go to a church that taught things like that.
Quite a few years ago I quit wearing my wedding ring because I was afraid I might offend some preachers/people by wearing it. Several months later I put it on again. I don't know if anyone even noticed when I quit wearing it and when I started wearing it again. The only person who was offended was my wife. She was offended when I stopped wearing it.

My true thoughts on wedding rings came to surface when we decided to go on the TV show.

I thought it would be a greater chance at impropriety (or the appearance of it) to not wear one than to wear one - so I went and bought the one I had lost a few weeks after our wedding. Had it on ever since.

Maybe not worldly but WRONG
because they do not shave close enough.
