St. Paul said that women shouldn't say a word in church. .
Well now, I'm no expert on St Paul except for hearing his letters to this and that the other group being read during Mass. However, I thought to myself, now I bet that the ignorant and the unscrupulous have twisted, stretched or otherwise corrupted his words for their own ends - and lo and behold, what did I discover?
Well it seems that of the thirteen letters attributed to him, seven are believed to be genuine and the remaining six are disputed, including the one that tells women to be silent. However, even if it were a genuine Pauline letter, it refers specifically to the women of the group he is addressing, a number of whom were apparently causing doctrinal confusion with their own interpretation.
On the other hand, in the authentic Pauline letters, he sings the praises of his female associates for whom he quite obviously has the greatest respect. I dipped into these letters and specific women are named and praised for their work in spreading the teachings of Christ, and are described as co-workers, leaders, teachers and servants of the church. They are clearly involved in evangelizing and missionary work.
Let's just say that you if you're such a devotee of St Paul you ought to do a bit more reading about him - or else stop telling porkies to fit your own warped agenda. Oh, and I don't think he'd be too impressed with your nun picture.
I think it's the idea that 'all women are uuhores...
Basically, not capable of engaging in a debate with an intelligent woman, so resorts to childish vulgarity. Thanks for your input, Maf :) careful of those streetcars now!
