"...there’s a war on women,” Carson stated at a rally. Ahhh...the shame of being a woman! The FILTH of it all! No wonder the Christian Right is trying so hard to reverse women's reproductive rights--and put her back in her godly role as birther and breeder. :-(
All this pretense to having a brain must STOP! If they want to know something, "let them ask their husbands at home"...where they don't embarrass society (and the Baby Jesus)...with their reprehensible hubris!
"But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the husband is the head of his wife, and God is the head of Christ. Any man who prays or prophesies with something on his head disgraces his head, but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled disgraces her head--it is one and the same thing as having her head shaved. For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, she should wear a veil. For a man ought not to have his head veiled, since he is the image and reflection of God; but woman is the reflection of man. Indeed, man was not made from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for the sake of woman, but woman for the sake of man. For this reason a woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels."
(NRSV, 1 Corinthians 11:3-10)
As in all the churches of the saints, women should be silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as the law also says. If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church. (NRSV, 1 Corinthians 14:33-35) |
