No, but most guys with beards are filled with vanity and pride. Those are sins. Look at some posts in this thread and you'll see vanity and pride. Guys don't grow beards for functionality, they grow them for vanity. They keep them trim and neat out of vanity and pride.

thats a horribly constructed argument.
you've literally become the Pharisee smiting your breast, praying loudly that you thank God you arent like the bearded publican in the corner.
that accusation you made has literally no merit because you paint with a ginormous brush only presenting "evidence" of the few bearded people on the forum being "prideful" therefore it must apply to everyone with a beard.
There is NOTHING wrong with liking the way you look.
If I enjoy the fact that I have clean, white, cavity free straight teeth is that pride?
Should I stop brushing to save my soul from hell?
I know plenty of humble, non pretentious people with beards but according to your reasoning I must reject my knowledge and experience and stamp them as prideful because of facial hair.
Maybe people need to stop making silly non Biblical rules and trying to enforce them by shaming and threatening people into obedience.
