But I’m so excited for Jesus to return to earth and create a moneyless, stateless, classless society

  • I don’t get why it’s more popular than Corinthians - they’re both New Testament, so it would be unchristianly not to follow them both. I get why Deut 22:5 gets ignored, that’s Old Testament, but why should anyone get a pass for Cor 11:5-6?

      Yeah. Our class had a whole thing about the women speaking in church thing. The conclusion was that women should not disrupt church by speaking, and neither should men but women do it more often. The class was not great. We briefly mentioned the head coverings one time. I think they were just like “That was a cultural norm we don’t care about anymore.” The cherry-picking was real. I eventually decided if my teachers are going to cherry pick things, so will I. Now I can be gay and trans, and if you have a problem, I’ve got a lot of your own shit ready to throw back in your face.

        Understandable, honestly, somehow I managed to extend that to more of the teachings than desired, though. Apparently that wasn’t supposed to be the takeaway. Oops.
