Jeez, you can't trust anyone these days.
[quote author=" 1 Cor 11:5,6 "] But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven. For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered

I'm not a very naive, trusting person.

This is slightly taken out of context. If you read the chapter, it is talking about appearing in the congregation. It also says in that chapter that men should not have long hair, but you apparantly didn't notice that. As far as I can tell, it was accounting for cultural practices. If people went to work in swimsuits, wouldn't it be dishonorable in our culture? Same goes for church. It basically says that you should not appear in a dishonorable way before God, because it would dishonor the church.

Oh, and you should stop using the King James Version and switch to the New International Version.

In your information, I'm one of the 18 non-believers.

And you're interpreting it very very very-

I don't have time to type this on a 3DS. Just fill in a hundred verys and put strictly after them.
 
Yeah a lot of religious people don't follow the Bible to the word. Times change, even for the word of God.

My point was that if God handed down his word, what, 5000 years ago or something, it's not necessarily all going to be applicable to the 21st century. That's why we don't stone heathens in the street anymore, and a lot of Christians don't think we should because they understand that it's not all relevant to the modern day.
 
Are you suggesting that god is time?

EDIT: The above was before Shyguy27 expanded his post.

Many Christians still follow shit from the Old Testament.

But that's not true. It is relevant. A lot of stuff in there is very useful to help you become a better person. The thing about stoning non-believers must have a different meaning than you think, as God does not want Christians to kill them, he wants Christians to help them.
