[QUOTE]Originally posted by D_Oro: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Just call me Jari: [qb] Actually when I was younger the women in my Church wore Chapel Caps.. http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:LFq9ArzY-3fX9M:http://images.marketplaceadvisor.channeladvisor.com/hi/46/46321/veil_battenberg_lace_circle_1.jpg&t=1 They look like the above. Many Modern Christians wear Chapel Caps in the Church. Just as many Muslim women DON'T wear Hijabs. [/qb][/QUOTE]I wore this to church growing up too. I liked wearing it. I still have mine .... :) Personally, I think that most are not interested in understanding the other and more interested in "one upping each other". Anyway, thought I would share my views on this. First of all I do not believe that Christians criticize Islam because of the hijab. Christians, for the most part, do not understand Islam and know very little about it. (Keep in mind that I am speaking from an American standpoint. ) I personally have never heard anyone here criticize the hijab. I have heard criticisms of the face covering which I have my own share of criticisms for and I do not believe this is a criticism of Islam. Second, the Bible is a spiritual book. [QUOTE] 2Cr 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: [b] for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.[/b] [/QUOTE]If you read on in this chapter of Corinthians you will see that it also says that a woman's hair is given her for a covering: [QUOTE] 1Cr 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering. [/QUOTE]This chapter also puts a woman under a man saying that the man is the image and glory of God and the woman was created for the man and is the glory of the man. I personally take issue with this, possibly because of my experience with men... :) .... although in some aspects I can understand it. Yet, there would have to be an exceptional man for me to concede to this. ;) In a spiritual sense the woman is the church and Christ is the head of the church. aka "the covering". It could also be taken that the man is the covering for the woman... so in this case does that leave unmarried women without a covering? Then there is this: [QUOTE] Gal 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. Gal 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. Gal 3:26 ¶ For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Gal 3:28 [b]There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.[/b] [/QUOTE]What if finally comes down to is that Jesus has fulfilled the law and we are no longer judged by it. Faith has come and we no longer have need of a school master. [/QB][/QUOTE]
