This is all that matters to many people, not that it's Biblical, but that their appearance is in line with the organization's standards.

This is why they don't need scripture to back up their beliefs, or can even misinterpret scripture to back them up.

I can't count the times as a kid when I'd ask "WHY" we didn't do certain things, I was told "It's against our religion".
