Christian women, did you know that you're supposed to wear head coverings?
Read 1 Corinthians 11:2-16
And if you want to interpret that, then here's a bible verse that it should be taken literally.
2 peter 1:20-21
"But know the first of all, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation, for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the holy spirit spoken from god."
I'm not a atheist, I'm a pagan who actually read the horrific bible

the head covering is in fact their hair...the bible says that a woman's hair is her glory. if she is married then her husband covers her & if not then christ covers her.
unless the bible is an old KJV...you're going to get screwed up c/r/a/p...such as marry the rapist...KJV says to stone that guy but marry the lover you're screwing around with...OR take 50 shekels from him.
just for one example.....

The settings. Paul’s words suggest two settings, or spheres of activity—the family and the congregation. He says: “The head of a woman is the man; . . . every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered shames her head.” (Verses 3, 5) In the family arrangement, the woman’s husband is the one whom Jehovah designates as her head. Unless she gives due recognition to her husband’s authority, she would shame her husband if she handled responsibilities that Jehovah assigns to him. For example, if it became necessary for her to conduct a Bible study in her husband’s presence, she would acknowledge his authority by wearing a head covering. She would do so whether he is baptized or not, since he is the head of the family.* If she were to pray or to teach in the presence of her minor baptized son, she would likewise wear a head covering, not because he is the head of the family, but because of the authority granted to baptized male members of the Christian congregation.Read more...

Why would they bother to do any of the inconvenient things the Bible tells them to do when they could just judge gays and single mothers for their sins instead?
