What you're saying is that if someone doesn't believe that trimming hair will send you to hell, then there's not a lot else that they believe will send one to hell.
Hmm.......how about the SINS the Bible mentions? I don't know of any "bobbed hair woman" on this forum who doesn't believe in abstaining from sin.
But, that's all I'm saying about that for now.

dont stop now. we have to get clairity.
lets start with the fact that I do not believe cutting ones hair sends them to hell. I dont even buy the "obey your pastor" deal that gets taught.
I never have. I have never been part of a church that taught that.
I hope that is a good starting point.
let me restate this more clearly.
Conservitives who believe that this and other standards issues (like television) are heaven and hell issues BELIEVE THAT.
So it isnt a fair comparison for you to take their core belief and treat it like they are bashing others for stating their core belief.
those that dont believe these things, typically hold to a classic "orthodox chiristian" belief that Grace is all that is needed and beyond the "Sins" listed in the bible, arent likely to start telling folk they are going to hell.... in general.
Surely we can agree on these points. Therefore, you are not making a fair comparison. hows that?
