The irony in your post works on so many levels, Alex. Especially with that particular smilie. Are you sure you're "only" a teen?
I don't get it, with the only a teen thing, but I do see the irony of expecting better of this new org that has had a few ethical slip-ups from what I read.
Also, as for difference of male and female- Paul wrote to saved believers in Corinth and to Timothy and the advice was the same- for their women to keep silent. The LORD knew perfectly well what HE was doing when HE inspired Paul to write those words.

It ought to be HIM they have heard.
Women keeping silent in the church does not include singing and expressions of praise and worship. The Scriptures COMMAND everything that hath breath to praise the LORD.
As for asking questions, why don't you stop mocking Scripture! I STRONGLY believe a woman's religious questions should be asked to either an older woman in the church, or to her father or husband, NOT the pastor. The husband/father is the Head of the house, and it is his job to make sure his family is where they need to be spiritually. He is responsible for answering his wife's and children's questions, and the pastor is responsible for making sure the men in he pastors are well-versed and knowledgable in the Scriptures.
Also about the question on following all that Paul wrote, including the holy kiss... I'm so tired of that being used to minimize the effect of the Scriptures GOD gave Paul to write. When Paul mentions the holy kiss, he ALSO speaks of greeting certain brothers and sisters. This shows the cultural basis of the holy kiss, "Greet Aquila and Priscilla, greet Demas, greet.... ect." and at the end he'll mention the holy kiss. Are all peoples at all times commanded to give a holy kiss? No. Are all men everywhere commanded to pray lifting holy hands, and women to dress modestly and learn in all silence and subjection? Yes.
I just don't get the woman preacher's argument, it really troubles me, it is so blatantly disobedient ... it gets hard to even debate it sometimes because of the depressing nature of so many's disobedience.

I've had more than one MALE pastor that disagrees with you.
So now what? Are they hell bound for their so-called disobedience?

Isn't it fun explaining the Bible as we choose to see it and expecting everyone else to see it our way, and when they don't, they are wrong?
LOL!
Cracks me up that you will explain away the kiss greeting as cultural, but the women keeping silent (with the exceptions you mention that Paul never makes) isn't. That scripture isn't even talking about women preaching!! LOL!
