Danny had recently passed his driving test and decided to ask his clergyman father if there was any chance of him getting a car for Christmas, which was yet some months away.  โ€˜Okay.โ€™ said his father โ€˜I tell you what Iโ€™ll do.  If you can get your โ€˜Aโ€™ level grades up to โ€˜Aโ€™s and โ€˜Bโ€™s, study your bible and get your hair cut, Iโ€™ll consider the matter very seriously.โ€™
A couple of months later Danny went back to his father who said โ€˜Iโ€™m really impressed by your commitment to your studies.  Your grades are excellent and the work you have put into your bible studies is very encouraging. However, I have to say Iโ€™m very disappointed that you havenโ€™t had your hair cut yet.
Danny was a smart young man who was never lost for an answer. โ€˜Look dad. In the course of my bible studies Iโ€™ve noticed in the illustrations that Moses, John the Baptist, Samson and even Jesus had long hair.โ€™  โ€˜Yes. Iโ€™m aware of thatโ€ฆโ€™ replied his father โ€˜โ€ฆ but did you also notice they walked wherever they went?โ€™
