Oh, I think after 38 years of being a Christian, I can pretty much tell the difference, so please do NOT assume I don't. I believe Paul was talking to the women of his time so please don't lay your legalism onto me or other women of our time. Having a head covering will NOT make us more holy. Many women who wear head coverings, and I am making a generalization here, are no more holy than those who do not. It's a heart issue, kosta.

AMEN!

Oh, I don't assume anything. It seems to me that you do.

+Paul thinks not wearing any covering will make you less holy. You choose to dismiss the Scripture.

I believe Paul was talking to the women of his time so please don't lay your legalism onto me or other women of our time

That is your belief, as you say, but it's not scriptural. There is no scriptural evidence that this was meant as a "fad." Now, it seems you are making things up as you go along. You also keep repeating that it's "my legalism." It's not! It's in the Bible.

It's a heart issue, kosta.

That is another example of a banal, worn-out, meaningless chliché imo. What exactly is this so-called "heart?"
