Hair product and the Celestial kingdom

Post by _quark »

After watching the temple movies over and over, you start to notice things that many movie watchers might never consider. After many years, I started to notice the hair of Adam and Eve. Why not? What else is there to think about if you have everything memorized? It appears that Gordon Hinckley wanted Adam and Eve to have fluffy and shiny hair while in the Garden of Eden. After they leave the Garden, their hair becomes noticeably greasy and flat. I also noticed a little static problem in Eve's hair after entering the cruel world.

What is the message?

I guess the message might be that hair will always look sexy and beautiful in the CK. Does this mean everyone will have access to Paul Mitchel's Extra Body (great website, by the way, have you seen it?). No matter what your social status is, you will get the best hair products - no questions asked.

Would you consider hair with extra body and shine to be "celestial" or "worthy of God's presence"?

I always suspected that the fall of man would lead to something like dirty harry.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

If you look at the LDS portrayal of heaven in pictures and films (temple film included) you will be hard pressed to find a portrayal that doesn't depict every man and woman with a head of full, dense and luxurious hair.

I imagine Mormon heaven will look a lot like this:

Probably good thing that Elisha is not portrayed in the endowment ceremony.

...here came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD.

- It was his private opinion.

And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
- God's love is conditional.


Ehm...
And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
