Amazing he would not tell EVERYONE.....

He does tell almost everyone, because he has never had a beard before. So people comment about it. But, it is very irritating to see the UPC people turn their nose up. My mom tells him not to "hunt them down" and tell them, let them think what they will. Most UPC people think it's wrong whether it is for Messiah or not.
