My pastor's wife had broidered hair?

[Sweet Pea]

This is probably not the thread to bring this up - however, there have been some posters who are VERY adamant that long means uncut. It appears to me that these posters are men. Before I ask my question, I want to make it clear, as I stated in another thread, I l have long hair (as in below my waist). I have no intention of trying to shortcut my own personal preference; however, I have learned (the hard way) not to judge other people by my own convictions and preferences. Having said that ....

Have any of you men (those who are so adamant that women who cut or trim their hair will not make it to heaven) ever gone through the experience with your wife or daughter when they have lost their hair due to medical conditions/treatments. For example, chemo treatments for cancer. I don't want any responses regarding some Godly saint in your church or someone that is an acquaintance or friend and you watched them deal with this circumstance with grace and longsuffering and THEY never touched their hair with scissors. If it came out on its own, it came out, but THEY would NEVER do such a thing! I want responses regarding only your wives or daughters who have had LONG hair (I mean waist length or longer).

Have you sat on the floor with them as they were sick beyond belief from the chemo - in pain and suffering - for hours on end. Have you watched as they dealt not only with the physical suffering but the "burden" of having their hair string down around their face and into the toilet as they emptied their guts? Yes, it will string down. Someone in this condition doesn't have the energy or inclination to put it up. Pins hurt their head, clips are annoying when you finally get the opportunity to lay your head on a pillow on the bed. Hats and scaves don't always work to keep the hair away from the face and all together. They can also become a nuisance when trying to finally rest. Chemo doesn't always cause a person to lose all the hair and when it does, it doesn't always come out all at the same time. It comes out in clumps and drops everywhere - being messy and hard to deal with.

If you saw your wife or daughter in this condition, would you condemn her to hell, if she choose to cut it shorter so that it wasn't a burden during this time? Yes, I said "burden"; once you have watched someone go through this, you realize that there is no "glory" in it. It is a burden to the person who is ill as well as to the caretaker. There is nothing that hurts the heart more that watching someone you love suffer through this pain and agony and then also suffer the indignity of having their hair an issue because of the length.

Having said all that: I can't believe that God, who made all things so clear in the OT regarding the laws, could leave something so unclear if it is a heaven or hell issue. There is nothing left to interpretation when adultery, gossip, fornication, etc. etc. are listed. Why would He have left so much to interpretation of Greek, culture of the day, etc. etc. There are many things Paul states as sin. Cutting hair is not one of those things. JMHO
