There is no debate; if women talk in your church, then you must leave that church.
Who was talking, who was he talking to and where were they when he or she was talking. I don't think women necessarily have to cover their heads today.

It was a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away, when I was a child, the women were made to cover their heads in church. I had a strange up bringing, that's probable why I'm a Buddhist now.

Ok, you got me on that one. Some people believe you do, but I am not sure if that makes sense to me (I know that it does not have to make sense to me).

Now that's a loaded question...Some believe you do, to the experiences you would appreciate for your growth and to the understanding of what life means....to experience loss and happiness..pain, sorrow, joy, and bliss..because you are of a spirit nature, you cannot experience these things, but have to incarnate to do so...AND that is why some believe we were created...we are parts of the creative process...parts of "the One"...parts that want to experience everything that there is to...but to do so would mean that we wouldn't remember who we really are...to be able to remember it would change the whole learning/experiencing process.....I have read that you have a choice to reincarnate or not...you can stay in the state you are in after death, or go back for more experiences....Believe it or not...its said that we chose to go through this and that after it's all said and done...this life here seems like only a dream....not real at all.....only an illusion....because we remember why we came....and that's why some people don't come back to visit their still living relatives...because it doesn't seem real...like a dream....because they remember... 📖
