It is silly when they give you reasons that are not reasonable. Especially when Jesus wore a beard. I consider things silly when they are not found in the Bible and reasoned by thoughts that are unreasonable, such as it relates a person to the 60's hippy movement. My opinion, anyway.

What we are expected to do is often unreasonable in light of scripture. So whether someone expects it or not, what is the Lord's will? And the idea that it is God's will if the pastor says it is, despite lack of scripture, then I kindly disagree.
