(Defined: "Head covering" = whatever Paul meant when he speaks of having the head covered, etc, whether long (or uncut) hair or an actual material head covering. "For today" = applies to Christians in the 21st century in that women must pray with their head covered in the way Paul intended as defined in the previous definition of "head covering". That is to say, if Paul commanded women are to pray with a material covering on their head, then women today are equally obligated to pray with a material covering on their head. If Paul commanded women are to pray with long/uncut hair, then women today are equally obligated to pray with long/uncut hair.)
Any other proposition regarding head covering may also be debated provided my opponent states the proposition to be debated and defines their terms.
