I bet Yahweh will understand that Fegans attempted to not cut his beard. Any god that holds you liable for something done against your will isn't much of a fair god.

I am not familiar with Fegan's Assemblies of Yahweh but if reincarnation is an option maybe he can not do all the armed robbery and battery and such and thus not put himself in the position of being unable to practice his religion on his reincarnated next go round.

It certainly could be worse than a haircut for Mr. Fegans...... they could be hooking him up to the Tucker Telephone.

FINALLY - Bald as Patriotic?!! I'm diggin' it...

Yeah, Mr. Fegans should be glad that Tommy DeShazo is dead and not able to run the Tucker Telephone any more. Here is the ugly head of religion raising up again. If they let this guy have long hair, everyone in the prison will want long hair, except for the skinheads of course. Then they'd have a place for lice and homemade weapons.

He should have said his religion required the monthly servicing of a high priestess.....but no....he goes for food and hair. THINK harder next time Mr. Fegans. If you'd asked right you might screaming OH HOLY SWEET YAHWEH for an hour once a month.

Well thank goodness Eureka Springs doesn't treat its students like many treat their prisoners.

Let your freak flags fly kids!

Let's see. This long-hair shizz came up in the '60s and STILL stirs controversy, at least here in The Natural State nearly fifty years later.

I understand. But as "kizzy" queried in an earlier thread replying to a statement that, "It is a shame for a man to have long hair," . . . "Have you ever seen a picture of Jesus with short hair?" . . .

Well, yes.

Speaking of haircuts, I was sitting in the #1 chair in the White Way Barber Shop, Nashville, Ark.,circa early to mid-sixties. I looked up from my comic book and Orval Faubus and an entourage walk in. He was running against Rockefeller and railing against "Rockefeller flying to Manhattan to get $25 haircuts." He rubbed my head and that was the start of my male pattern baldness.

Shit Norma. That's a Deer Huntin Jesus for sure. If jesus could get a buzzer cut back then
surely he would have shaved. So take off that 3 week beard and welcome the boy to deer camp.
But hey, wasn't jesus from the dark-skinned area of the planet? What gives with that lemon-bleached
whiteness?

Scrapper that had to be in '66. I still have my
lapel pin 'Win 66.' I remember a few guys who
couldn't get over Rocky's $25 hair cut. I thought
back then, 'hell he's flying on his own airplane.'
Sorry old Orval screwed your hair but baldness
is usu a gift from your momma.

"Oh eLwod, eLwood, you stubborn, splendid, adorable fool!" ... oops, sorry. Channeling Anne Baxter in "The Ten Commandments" again. (Damn, this is good weed.)

Of COURSE you're right. But it's all about marketing. Do you think for one minute that a literal depiction of the fictional Jesus . . . wait a minute while I wrap my head around that one . . . would SELL?

He would look like Isaac Hayes (R.I.P.) in sackcloth and how do you think that would play to Romans in 315 A.D. when Emperor Constantine declared Christianity the state religion and killed anybody (in the name of Love) who didn't accept it because they were "heretics" and "blasphemers?"

We're talking about worshiping a big bald gold-dripping Middle Eastern black man as the savior of the world, here.

Try filling Roman collection plates with THAT.

Middle Eastern men in those days HAD to have unshaven beards and short hair, eLwood. Everybody knows that. Short hair was the only way to distinguish Middle Eastern men from Middle Eastern women. Norelco shavers and Chanel No. 5 were millennia away.

It's all about racism and marketing, precious. Nobody's gonna worship a black man except other blacks. And they don't much count. Look at Darfur, genocide in Africa, etc. Nobody cares. They're black. Nobody knows what I'm even talking about.

Racism and marketing.

(Well, I care, but I'm the only one in Chenal who even has a clue.)

Uh . . . wait a minute. Didn't mean to go all contemporary political on you.

My personal fave as "Christ?" Blue-eyed New Orleans-born hunk Jeffrey Hunter.

Now THERE was a "Christ" to go down on your knees for!

You're on the money, eLwood. I remember now that distinctive WR66 lapel pin. I may have one hidden somewhere among the old bongs.

Funny,,,,French and I had a deep conversation about hair just yesterday, thats what we
do nowdays......just mundane topics to get us thru the day.
ELwood is correct, males get the hair gene from mama, females from papa.....lucky ones who
have good hair on both sides.
I agree with Norma about the best Jesus, Jeffery Hunter...what a beautiful man.....must
admit I didn't know he was a son of N'Awlins.

Certainly, jazzy. Hollywood has to get a blue eyed Anglo-Saxon to play Jesus and to keep history straight.

Perhaps you will find this of interest. Do the clicky.....

As far as I know the only time I ever had any Republican campaign paraphernalia on my person was when my step-grandfather put WR66 pins on anyone who'd sit still long enough. I was only around 5 so I'd take anything anyone would give me. Turns out that Rockefeller feller was all right.

I lost that pin somewhere along the way but a nice friend game me his a few years ago.

Cato, that Jesus looks like the love child of Buddy Hackett and Robert Downey, Jr.

hugh mann open yer eyes! Norma's Jesus IS Brad Pitt! If I knew that's what Jesus really looks like, I'd switch and become a big believer cause I want nothing more than to sit on his right hand!

Click on my name jazzy and durango and see if you can watch Bill Moyers online. His last show was about payday lenders and other ghouls who make billions bilking the poor. Including a hospital in Hot Springs who landed a world of hurt on a diabetic girl from Malvern. You know the truth.....we don't live in a good country or world. There is no hope. Except in Brad Pitt Jesus!

Oh hell, Cato, I know Jesus was a dark skinned, brown eyed, black hair dude..........
what did I care in 1961..........whenever the movie came out.........
Jeffery was a beautiful young man..........
thats Hollywood.........hopefully we grow and learn.

Yeah, I can see a little Brad Pitt--early Brad Pitt (as in his character "Early" in Kalifornia--with a haircut), but I'm talking about Cato's Jesus. That's Buddy Hackett/Robert Downey Jr.

And I recommend that Bill Moyers episode, too. I saw it the other night when it was on. It's all about da money.

PS If any of Bill Clinton's operatives are tuning into this blog, would you please ask Bill Clinton to send the AT blog his view of what's going on between Russia and Georgia. I'm not sure what's going on though I'm reading up on it. I started out rooting for Georgia mostly cause I loved Ray Charle's version of that song. Anyway, the US has been cheering Georgia on since they broke away from the old USSR.

Then it appears to me that Georgia started this by invading an even smaller country trying to take it over. Russia, already pissed at Georgia and our egging them on, said...the hell you say...and started bombing the bejesus out of Georgia. OK....tonight they're saying that Russia looks like they're going to whip Georgia and take them over. OK......all the neo-cons are supporting Georgia, every last one of them. In light of that, forget Ray Charles....if Bill Kristol is for it, I'm against it.

If we play this the wrong way.....and let me remind you who is still in the driver's seat....if we play this wrong....it's Cold War 2 time. So imagine the Korean War going on at the same time as the Vietnamese War plus the beginning of the Great Depression all wrapped into one with Herbert Hoover in the White House and there is our future in a nut shell. I really really need Bill Clinton to tell me what the hells going on. Thanks, Your friend, DBI

If I knew that's what Jesus really looks like, I'd switch and become a big believer cause I want nothing more than to sit on his right hand!<<

I think Norma and jazzy want to sit on the right hand of Jesus Hunter.

I dunno about your computer jesus cato. Looks like terrorisk to me, been to the
wailing wall ten too many times, too much bad goat got the fellow all bloated or
maybe that was the result of a Roman ass-whipping. Anyway that image is a
departure and he sure looks like he's hurtin.

Norma, I have it on good word, rock-solid word, from none other than chasv,
jesus was not only real, he loves you, Vera Wang or no,
the man lives and loves you.
It don't get more real than that.
Work it girl.
