The Bible has plenty to say about think upon, what we watch, and evil communications. The Bible teaches that we dress modestly and without excessive jewelry. It even admonishes long hair on women and short hair on men.

But the Bible says nothing about beards being sinful.

So, standards based on biblical principles, in my opinion, are acceptable. But a standard without any biblical foundation is just a standard for having a standard's sake.
