Here's a question to spin off that:
Interesting you think nature means "the natural world around them", others see it contrary. For example, since Paul also made an appeal to "nature", which many believe transcends the current culture and is much more global and broad, that it would supercede culture.
Also in another letter to Timothy Paul admonishes the brethren to not have women having authority or teaching other men, and makes an appeal to the OT (Adam and Eve)... are these then transcendent to culture? Many say, because of that, they are.
