About

Jehovah's Witnesses have made a surprising change to their dress code, allowing sisters to wear slacks and brothers to grow beards. This shift marks a significant departure from the organization's traditional rules, including the infamous 1922 beard ban imposed by leader Joseph Rutherford. We examine the historical context behind these changes and what they reveal about the evolving nature of religious institutions.#JehovahsWitnesses #ReligiousReform #BeardBan #DressCodeChange #ProgressiveReligion Support the Show:Become a Patreon Member: https://owenmorgan.com/patreonRead my books: Was Hitler an Atheist? https://owenmorgan.com/whaa Understanding Jehovah's Witnesses: https://owenmorgan.com/ujw Watch on YouTube:Telltale: https://www.youtube.com/@owenmorgantelltaleTelltale Fireside Chat: https://www.youtube.com/@telltalefiresidechatTelltale Unfiltered: https://www.youtube.com/@telltaleunfilteredPixel Dreams: https://www.youtube.com/@owenpixeldreamsTwitch: https://owenmorgan.com/twitchBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/owen-morgan-s-fireside-chat--6201320/support.
