Do you believe that St. Paul has any relevance when he says that (head-covering)? Or do you only believe those Paulian verses that, well, support your beliefs?

No, I pretty much believe all of them.

Read 1 Cor. 11:15...

"But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering."

God gives the covering, hair, and what Paul was speaking to was a woman cutting their hair like the prostitutes of that day, much like Peter is getting at when he says don't let your world be that of the beauty parlor, the current fads.

That means all soccer moms need to be covered.
