"I praise you for remembering me in everything and for you holding the traditions I just pa- as I, as I pass them on to you.
Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
But every woman who prays and prophesies with her head, with her head uncovered dishonors her head.

But it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved.
Then she should cover her head." Come on, Paul.
"A man ought to cover his head, since he's the image of the glory of God, but woman is the glory of man.

What are you gonna teach me?" And at first glance it appears, it seems that Paul's just talking about head coverings, hair length, fashion, uh, what the gl- uh, all this stuff.
And if we're not careful, we'll miss what he's really trying to say and we'll argue about if you should wear hats in church or not for the next 30 minutes.
And when we read passages like this, we gotta be reminded.
And, and I'm, I'm not...
