"women shall not speak in church" Paul's letter to the Corinthians 14:34
"women shall not speak in church" Paul's letter to the Corinthians 14:34
People often misquote, or take bible verses out of context. This is a perfect example of just that. The Pauline letters were actual letters that were sent to the early congregations addressing individual concerns and issues. In Corinth, the women were particularly talkative. Paul just wanted them to shut up, to use a bible verse like this is truly a mark against your faith. It shows how little you understand the bible, AND, it speaks volumes for the way that you veiw women.

:Do you have any evidence for that assertion? I Timothy 2:11-15 explains why women are to learn in silence, and it has nothing to do with particularly talkative women in one church:
<blockquote>Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.</blockquote>
