Quote: wannabuyamonkey said: That is to say law is interpreted as law, metaphore as metaphore suggestion as suggestion and history as history, realiising that the scriptures were written in history to specific groups. When Paul writes to the Corinthians to say that women should cover thier heads, we need to realise that that book wasn't addressed directly to us in the modern church and need to ask "why would this be important to the Corinthians and how (or if) it applies to us today"
What makes you say that this was written to the Corinthians as a group specifically? Why is it not applicable to the modern day Church?
