short haired women keep angels out of church.


short hair on women and long hair on men cause angels to not operate the gifts of the spirit listed in 1 cor.12.

1 Corinthians 11:5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven.


what this means is women with short hair dishonor their husbands.1 Corinthians 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. The unveiled part means short hair as found in vs. 15.

Just read your entire bible. You'll also read that if you look at a woman with lust you have comitted adultery. The bible also says to stone adulterers. Can we come and kill you?

Don't forget that if you have sex, you're already married, too.

Unveiled means short now? Not, you know, without a veil, ie headdress? Well blow me down.

See, this is why you shouldn't trust interpretations of specific words in a text that has been through multiple translations and not proofread by the original authors. Translation is rarely a perfect process, especially in such a vague text which relies on metaphor and parables, as every translator will inevitably be inclined to use their own interpretation of them.

You idiot! Their heads were shaved as a mark of shame in those days! Can we not talk about honour killings!

Furthermore! No you stupid cow! A veil is a fucking veil! If you're not wearing a burkha to church you're dishonouring God and your head may as well be shaved! Don't lie like that! You probably think Jesus was white and all those other Evangelical lies - oh wait, religious lies are called HERESY!

I never really understood this one:that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.\"

So doesn't that mean everyone moves one place? If the woman becomes man, then she's not woman anymore? She's man. But then man is christ, so she's not man anymore. Christ is god then she's moved up another peg. Then what happens, does god become woman to complete the circle of life? Is this some sort of cake-a-walk? Oh, wait, you're hypnotized by the bible! I forgot, it's not supposed to make sense.

Long hair on men...? What, have you never seen pretty much every picture of your own messiah?

I'm a woman with short hair. Perhaps I should blackmail my local churches for large amounts of filthy lucre in exchange for not chasing angels out of their premises. Sounds like a promising racket! Better than getting a second job.

There were times (and, I think there is still a Jewish tradition) when once a woman got married she was required to cut her hair short as a way of showing fidelity to her husband.

And long, uncovered hair is supposed to attract angels, but it isn't in a good way. Get your myths right!

NtC: if they had been truly righteous, they wouldn't have lost their hair, silly. God would have intervened. :P

What a petty, stupid gawd you worship! Not only does it try to control what people do in bed, even when they're alone; it's even concerned about how people wear their hair??? Gawd needs a hobby.

Nuns have their hair cut short as well.

Sometimes a veil is just a veil. Shaven heads were a form of shame, that's why the passage reads the way it does. It is basically saying that you shame yourself if you pray without your head covered.

Kelian: This bozo is probably a Protestant of the variety that believes Catholics, especially nuns, are going straight to a particularly fiery part of Hell.

I challenge 2ducklow to demonstrate that there have ever been any (nonmetaphorical or nonrepresentational) angels IN church, regardless of the hair length of anyone in the place.

David D.G.,

They are probably rather glad that there has never been any angels in their churches. Angels as described in the Bible are not like they are represented by Hollywood. But then the run-of-the-mill Christian probably does not know that!

What this means is the Bible is full of nonsense and 2ducklow is full of shit... or the other way around, you pick.

Do angels really need to go to church? (Presuming that they exist.) Did Jesus' hairstyle drive his Father crazy? My wife and I both wear buzz cuts huw many angels can we keep out of church if I'm pagan and she's Jewish? Neither of us have husbands.
