Re: UPCI endorses Womens cutting of hair?

I'll probably step on somebody's toes here, not meaning to, but I would be more worried about insurance agents than someone who cuts hair. At least he does perform a service to those who want their hair cut.

Insurance agents are selling what? (a promise to pay) for just in case... what? You are not getting anything tangible if you never have to use it.

If you ever drop that insurance because of financial difficulties, then you lost every dime you put into it. Or they drop you if you ever have to use it.

If any of you sell insurance, don't take it personally.

Yeah. Insurance is for people without faith.

I added to my original post.

But...what's bad now is that even people who have faith are being made, by laws, to buy this intangible substance. (oxymoron?)

Intangible is the word you're looking for...

There's an athiest selling insurance to christians who want to make sure their pets are taken care of after the rapture takes place.

Car salesmen as well are notorious for cheating customers. Pretty much any profession though has bad and good to it. Even police officers have corruption issues and can be a challenge for well meaning christian law enforcement officers. We need to be led by the Lord on all matters including our careers. As for the hair cutting, I'm not a fan of the uncut hair doctrine anyway, so... no foul?
