A teenager had just passed his drivers test, and he asked his dad to buy him a car

“Dad, will you be able to get me a car?” Asked the boy

“I suppose a car would be in order *if* you can raise your grades from C’s to B’s, you study your Bible, and cut your hair.” Replied the father.

After contemplating for many hours, the boy decided it was a good and fair compromise. Six weeks later, the father is astonished. His son was excelling in school, he studied his Bible every day, but his hair was still long and shaggy.

“I am very impressed with you” said the father “you are passing all of your classes, and you read the Bible every day. But why wont you cut your hair?” 

“After reading the Bible, I have noticed something.” Said the boy “Moses, Samson, and Absalom all had long hair. There is even evidence that *Jesus* may have had long hair!”

The father replied back “Did you also notice how they had to walk everywhere too?
