35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

1 Corinthians 14:33-35 states, "...As in all the congregations of the saints, women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church." At first glance, this seems to be a blanket command that women are not allowed to speak at all in the church. However, 1 Corinthians 11:5 mentions women praying and prophesying in the church and does not condemn it. Therefore, 1 Corinthians 14:33-35 must not be an absolute command for women to always be silent in church.
The context of this passage, and much of 1 Corinthians, is the order and structure of the church. The Corinthian church was noted for the chaos and lack of order that was rampant in that assembly (v. 33). It is interesting that no elders or pastors are mentioned, and the prophets were not even exercising control (see vv. 29, 32, 37). Everyone was participating with whatever expression they desired “whenever” they desired. This included tongues and prophesying by women who were taking the lead in the services instead of being submissive, as God’s Word makes clear (1 Tim 2:11-15). Apparently, certain women in the Corinthian church were out of order in disruptively asking questions publicly in the chaotic services. It is not coincidental that many modern churches that have tongues-speaking and claim gifts of healings and miracles also permit women to lead worship, preach, and teach. Women may be gifted teachers, but they are not permitted by God “to speak” in such a manner in His churches. In fact, for them to do so is “shameful,” meaning “disgraceful” (v. 35).
The context of 1 Corinthians 14:33-35 is talking about interpreting and understanding the gifts of tongues and prophecy (1 Corinthians 14:26-32). Therefore, 1 Corinthians 14:34 is not commanding women to be absolutely silent in the church all the time. It is only saying that women should not participate when tongues and/or prophecy is being interpreted and tested (1 Thessalonians 5:19-22; 1 John 4:1). This is in agreement with 1 Timothy 2:11-12 which says that women should not teach or have authority over men. If women were involved in deciding whether a prophecy was truly from God, they would be disobeying what the Bible says in 1 Timothy 2:11-12. Therefore, Paul tells women to be silent when tongues and prophecy are being interpreted so that they will not be disobeying God’s Word.

Assuming that the Bible were the rule book you want it to be instead of the written revelation of God to man, the answer would still be "they don't".
Women preach the gospel because the Lord calls them to preach the gospel. Your philosophy will never overcome the commands of the Lord unless the individual wants them to. Women also preach on these very verses at times. Granted, with 31,100 other verses to cover, they don't get to them nearly as often as a troll like you does.
They know that these verses were written to tell people that they needed to not disrupt church. They know that these verses do not require them to ignore their call to preach.
Why do female atheist trolls (such as yourself) reject the Community Guidelines that you agreed to follow when you joined this forum? Why do they create multiple accounts? Why do they repeatedly post variations of the same question? Why do they post rants as if they were questions?
We shall continue to pray for you.

Women preachers are called of God to preach.
As you have been told over and over again that these verses have Nothing to do with women preaching.
It has to do with the fact that women who were not preachers sitting on opposite sides of the temple listening to the speaker.
The men on the other side of the curtain that separated them from the women. In those days the men did not sit with their wives.
When the wives want to talk to their husbands they would holler out to them and disrupt the service.
So it was said that women keep silent while the speaking was teaching.
That speaker could be a woman or a man.
So your idea of women not being allowed to preach is false and any Pastor can vouch for this who is actually a Preacher.
don't get caught up on these scriptures they do not mean anything else.

This is not talking about preaching the word of God for there were woman preachers also. This is referring to taking the lead as a teacher in the Christian congregation. If a woman takes over a Godly assigned task to shepherd the congregation God's holy spirit would not be upon this.
