Bald-faced hypocrisy: Watch Mike Huckabee get mocked for his unbiblical shaving habits

At a town hall meeting at McOtto’s restaurant in Anamosa, Iowa, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) got challenged on Biblical law.
.
In the video embedded below, a man who identifies himself as Rod Webber raised his hand to ask a question of the erstwhile Fox News contributor and current 2016 Republican presidential hopeful.
.
“I’m not really a political person,” Webber said, “but I have a bet with a friend. You’re a religious person, a Christian?”
.
“Absolutely, I’m a believer,” Huckabee, who is a former evangelical pastor, replied.
.
Webber quoted the Bible’s Book of Proverbs, which says, “Whoever has a bountiful eye will be blessed, for he shares his bread with the poor.”
.
He then quoted the Bible’s final book, the Book of Revelations, saying that God commanded the righteous to “destroy those who destroy the Earth.”
.
And finally, from the Book of Matthew, Jesus said, “You shall not kill; and whoever shall kill will be in danger of judgment.”
.
Huckabee said that individuals should take it upon themselves to help the poor instead of “pawning that off on the government.”
.
Webber reminded Huckabee that he is breaking Biblical law by shaving, quoting the Book of Leviticus: “You shall not round off the hair on your temples or mar the edges of your beard.”
.
“There’s more passages about shaving being a sin than there is about homosexuality,” Webber said.
