If 1st Cor 11 talks about women covering their heads when praying and stuff, why is it so rare? And should it be like that?

Because it's understood to mean dress and act appropriately and respectfully while in prayer and worship instead of being a dress code."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot

I personally think it can be a very beautiful gesture by women during worship.

I've seen suggestions that hair length was the issue, not coverings. That would fit Paul's comments better. But I suspect we'll have to wait until we can talk to those saints in Heaven. Just as bad as hearing only one side of a phone conversation.Watch your links! http://www.theologyweb.com/campus/fa...corumetiquetteComment

Indeed. High context, and we don't have the context. Culture thing? Seems like quite a few things Paul says are culture related.Originally posted by DesertBerean View PostIf it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!Comment

I don't have much to add, I'm just reposting to get the post to work properly. I think its a beautiful tradition that I wouldn't mind seeing more of in worship.

". . . Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame* unto him?
But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering. . . ." -- 1 Corinthians 11: . . . 14, 15, . . .
The interpretation I see is the long hair on the woman is her covering. If she has her hair short, then it is not being a covering, then she should also be made bald.
" . . . For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. . . ." v.6
