I find that mind-boggling.

Is it accurate to say that "a woman is connected to her emotions in a way that no man is connected to, nor cannot be connected to"? Or "men, among us, have a position and authority in the church that ladies cannot obtain or fill, because of the man's unique place in the Church"? The opposite is also true, that "ladies among us, who do not cut their hair [are obedient and submitted to God's order] are entangled with angels and the wisdom and power of angels that men are not connected to and they cannot be connected to it".
I personally do not like the verbiage here... but there is nothing in this quote that describes LS as teaching magical powers in the substance of uncut hair. This is his interpretation of
1 Cor 11:10, goes along with the theme of submission and authority in the spirit realm, which both men and women have access to. Clearly some may disagree with his interpretation, and righfully so. IMO, LS interpretaion does not constitute the rhetoric that has been levelled against him, inaccurately decrying him as teaching "magical powers in the substance of uncut hair".
