1 Corinthians 9-11

[wolfpurplemoon]

Paul talks about whether he and the other preachers deserve a reward for leading the people to their salvation.

Paul warns his followers to avoid idol worship and states that pagan's are sacrificing to demons, and you shouldn't do that because then you may provoke God to his famous jealousy.

So yesterday I was reading that married men and women have equal rights to each other's bodies, but now Paul says that Christ is the head of every man and man is the head of a woman. And that a man should always worship with his head uncovered as he is the image and gory of God, but if a woman worships with her head uncovered then she might as well shave all her hair off. Also it is a disgrace to a man for him to have long hair but long hair is a woman's glory, thanks for the fashion tips Paul.

You have no problem with what I believe, and yet you go out of your way to call me an angry, ranting person with no facts and no basis, and yet I was raised Catholic and know the Bible practically by heart. I chose to reject religion - Christianity in particular - because of its bigoted, sexist, and contradictory laws and terms. As such, I will state my opinions on the matter and will always do so, in hopes of enlightening a few people into thinking for themselves.

If you find solace in that, good for you. I honestly do not care. But when you start shoving it down people's throats, I start to care. Believe what you want, but don't try and get me to believe it, too.
