The 3 Mormons have many opinions on the topic of beards. Shelley thinks beards are gross and hates them. Ian thinks they are totally fine. Kwaku thinks they are reserved for ancient people. And they have many more opinions on a new show segment called “Rate That Beard”!
On “Rate that Beard”, The 3 Mormons discuss their thoughts on different celebrities like Ryan Gosling, Robert Redford, Jack Black, Tom Selleck, and Andrew Garfield, and whether their beards and mustaches are awesome, or terrible.
The 3 Mormons discuss the BYU Honor Code and they agree that when you go to BYU, you sign the honor code; you need to agree to those standards, including not having a beard. If you don’t like the rule, don’t go to the school. It’s just that simple.
They recognize that sometimes there are pre-judgments to people with beards, but they all agree that if you want to grow a beard, then go for it. To them, it doesn’t matter if you have a beard.
Comment below with the best or the creepiest picture of a beard that you’ve ever seen! And tell us what you think and whether or not you agree with the 3 Mormons!

I have served as a counselor in a branch presidency, served twice as a bishop, served as a counselor in a stake presidency, been a temple ordinance worker and (since I retired after a military career and as a hospital CEO and healthcare executive) i am now a real-bearded professional Santa Claus and my wife is my Mrs. Claus. (She is also our ward’s RS Pres.) I am a BYU graduate and observed the Honor Code while there. As a military officer, I had no facial hair. As a healthcare professional, I was also clean shaved. In retirement, I am still temple worthy, still attend all my meetings, and follow the teachings of our faith. I also happen to have a full white beard. I recently played the part of Jacob in a theatrical production of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” I am a Mormon with a beard – so what business is it of anyone else?
