I always assumed he was growing it out for dreads because he liked the way they looked under football helmets.

I bet Jesus would know where to get a haircut in Atlanta if he was there on a business trip.

How does that make it a better question?

He was the original long-haired freak: he quit his job, grew his hair out and his beard, dropped out of Square Society, preached Love, drank wine and ate bread from wheat containing "Claviceps tulasne (purpurea), the ergot mould, in which ergoline alkaloids, mainly derivatives of lysergic acid, can be found."

That's my Messiah!

I like to picture my Jesus as lead singer for Lynard Skynard, with angel wings, and I'm in the front row, hammered drunk

Because he was a nazarite like John the Baptist.

It's Jewish not Jews. He could not cut his hair it was against Jewish faith. The orthodox Jews still practice that.

Monteg, it has nothing to do with Orthodox Jews, I'm afraid. I answered the question earlier.

This is the kind of weird response that women are confused/turned off by. Are you a virgin?

How is that the answer? A rock star has long hair.


Because no one knows what he looked liked, it's just the first depiction we have that was consistent, and given the European influences around the world from colonialism, it dominated modern culture.

I just asked if you were a virgin, I don't care if it's by choice or not.

Staying out of trouble won't help you get a job. It's more important to know people and have the social skills than the book learning. Yeah, you need to know something and a good GPA helps but that alone doesn't get you a good job.

Get in a little bit of trouble, and have fun. There's plenty of time of hard work and grinding away for money.
