You've claimed the EOC isn't in any way legalistic like the Western churches, but when talking about women physically putting something to cover their heads, looks awfully legalistic to me.

Well it's not like St Paul said it was a commandment from God. Oh wait he did.

Face it this is just one of countless examples of protestant relitavism; they worship feminism more than scripture so they let feminism trump scripture when any nasty contradictions come up.

I agree with your statement about relativism, but I think that the reasons go a lot further than simply accommodating the feminists.

I think that it goes back to the Reformation and the power, wealth and ego that ensured its success.

You could be right. You told me to check the NT to see how y’all get bishops, which would mean they’re selected from men in good standing in the community (congregation), not from any kind of pool of Priests.

Since y’all are sticklers in the area of head coverings, per 1st Cor, are funny shaped heads that looks an awful lot like head coverings of various types something that grow on some of the men after they’ve been selected or is it something that those who do the selecting look for? I know it can't be that any of the men in this video are wearing head coverings of any sort, cuz "Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, disgraceth his head."
