Women and Religion - Does it anger you?

It's pretty strange just how fast The Truth (TM) in this regard is changing, too. When I was a kid (1950's) women - Presbyterian, Methodist, whatever - always wore hats to church. Paul said you have to do that somwhere in an epistle, and that's what they did. Now, there are some Pentecostals and Mennonites (and old ladies who grew up wearing hats) that still do this, but I don't think that Southern Baptists, Church of Christ, and other "mainstream fundies" even pay attention to this "rule" at all.
And surely True Christians don't let fashion dictate what they will and won't wear...

Lam, you might be interested in a, um, spirited, long discussion of homosexuality and the Bible that closed probably about the time you arrived here:

Curse you, Lam! I'd almost forgotten that Joralex ever existed, and you reminded me!

Ol' Joralex/Jorge is always on the 'net somewhere. He only has one tune to play, but he gets it to a large audience.....

Congrats!

And carefully selected Pauline writings, at that. There's somewhere in his letters where he says "hey" to a deaconess. That sounds to me like a female church official.
