I have a feeling most clean shaven UPC men would not feel very comfortable if Jesus showed up today since he had facial hair and was not wearing a dark suit.

How do you know he had a beard?
Yeah it was culture at that time , but not everyone had one...so how do you know he had one???

Pretty hard to "pluck" a clean shaven face.

Not saying it never grew, there were points where he was in the wilderness for a time, etc.etc. When I go to deer camp and stay for a week or two I rarely shave, but I do not wear a beard.
I just wonder if he "wore" one.

No need to wonder ... it was shameful not wear one.

Did that matter to Him?
It was a sin to them to heal and work miracles on the sabbath. If he denounced that belief as being sin then would a little shame have mattered?

It was MAN'S (the Rabbis') interpretation that it was a sin to heal on the Sabbath. If it were a miracle and God performed it, then who were they to question God? That was why it was so important for them to claim His power was not of God.

Exactly, so if that "sin" was of man and wrong then why would it be hard to believe that he would shave even though man said it was "shameful"

C'mon now,
Jesus did not have a beard so they could not have plucked His beard.
He had been arrested after dinner and by then He had grown a little stubble which the Roman soldiers plucked out with the tweezers they had in their pockets.

The person in the image on the Shroud of Turin had a beard.
