A teenage boy had just passed his driving test and inquired of
his father as to when they could discuss his use of the car.
His father
said he'd make a deal with his son, "You bring your grades up from a C to a B
average, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut. Then we'll talk about
the car."
The boy thought about that for a moment, decided he'd settle
for the offer, and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks his father
said, "Son, you've brought your grades up and I've observed that you have been
studying your Bible, but I'm disappointed you haven't had your hair
cut."
The boy said, "You know, Dad, I've been thinking about that,
and I've noticed in my studies of the Bible that Samson had long hair, John the
Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair, and there's even strong evidence
that Jesus had long hair."
(You're going to love the Dad's
reply!)
"Did you also notice they all walked everywhere they
went?"
