A woman's role? I'll tell you the women's role. They are to wear head coverings, dresses only - no pants, and are to shut up in church.

Why do I say that? Cuz there are churches hereabouts that practice those very Biblical rules. I've been there, I've seen it ... and questioned it, much to my chagrin.

Since reading the Bible thru and thru, I've always questioned the no pants thingie. Oh I know, "A woman must not wear men's clothing, nor a man wear women's clothing, for the LORD your God detests anyone who does this." - Deut 22:5. But didn't men wear dresses back then?

Things get weird and irrational when religion is applied to the Bible. The fact that there's even a thread on it out here reveals that. One would think that the Christian life is living more laws than the Jews have to live.
