he does this in so many ways, but the one i want to draw our attention to is the way he rocked the theocratic fashion world with his wearing of a very manly pinkie ring in a recent wtbts video.. - -.

Jesus and the Money Changers - Matthew 21:12, 13

and he said to them: it is written, my house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a cave of robbers.
