What would Moses do?

How would Moses have worn his hair?

Short, to use less shampoo and water when washing! And he would have appreciated employing local, skilled people to keep it trim (you still can't import haircuts from China!).

More significantly, he would still be insisting on full and proper provision for the poor, the widow, the orphan - those without their own wealth or means of sustenance, and on welcoming the stranger, just as he did in biblical times. The gross inequalities across our societies and our world are unacceptable to God, and to Moses - and should be to us. The environmental degradation must be reversed. Instead of the caretakers of God's world, we have become its wreckers. So really, Moses would be tearing his hair out! It's time to close 'business as usual' and get the world back into shape.
