Pastor's new mustache alienates congregation
DENVER, CO. — Pastor Desmond Starr Jr. returned from vacation with a new mustache, promptly dividing his church. "I couldn't get used to it," says Janet Stassey, one of 55 longtime members who left Ancient Paths Church over the flap. "I like his preaching, but the mustache interferes with his ministry. He should recognize that." Starr says he didn't realize his facial hair would upset so many people. Some told him he looks creepy, like a "30-something version of Robert Goulet." "I like the old look," grumbles Leo Winter, 46, who has considered leaving the church. "When a pastor isn't consistent, things go off the rails. What's next? A goatee?"

These emergent guys are all the same...always crossing the bounds of orthodox Christian fashion.
i don't think that's a mustache. i'd call that a kick-your-asstache.
which is extremely unacceptable from a pastor.
hey jerk!!!
this was real funny, real funny. this sunday we had 8 families lined up to talk to me after service all of which told me they will be leaving the church because of the mustache debacle even though i only had the 'stache for a day and a half. 10 other families weren't there today and won't return my calls. i wonder why....maybe you don't understand the influence your blog has. it's either that or you don't give a rip about ruining other people's lives, so laugh it up....REALLY FUNNY!!!!
