A young boy had just gotten his driver*s permit and inquired of hisfather, if they could discuss his use of the car. His father said, "I*llmake a deal with you. You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your Bible alittle, get your hair cut and we*ll talk about the car." Well, the boy thought about that for a moment, and settled for theoffer, and they agreed on it. After about six weeks they went in to the study, where his father said,"Son, I*ve been real proud. You*ve brought your grades up, and I*veobserved that youhave been studying your Bible, and participating a lot more in the Biblestudy groups. But, I*m real disappointed, since you haven*t gotten yourhair cut." The young man paused a moment, and then said, "You know, Dad, I*ve beenthinking about that, and I*ve noticed in my studies of the Bible thatSamson hadlong hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair andthere*s even a strong argument that Jesus had long hair also." To this his father replied, "Did you also notice they all walkedeverywhere they went?"
