"he is saying that she is not to speak in tongues in the church." HUH?? Where did you get that?? What Paul was talking about was the the WIVES (not women in general), were not to speak to their husbands in church.

And where, may I ask, did you get that? Paul was talking about the gift of prophecy, that there must be order regarding the gift of tongues. Where did you get that he jumped from speaking in tongues to talking about housework or whatever? Read the whole chapter 14 of Corinthians, it's about spiritual gifts and exercising those gifts in public worship.

I got that from your post! Yes, Paul was talking about speaking in tongues in the church - but it had nothing whatsoever to do with WOMEN not being allowed to speak in tongues in church!! That's an ignorant statement and it is not what Paul said nor is it what he meant!!

You can put any kind of spin you want on it - but the statement I quoted is not a correct interpretation of what the Bible says.
