Women Cutting Their Hair, Please Help.
Ok, so basically I am UPC and have been all of my life. And as much as I want to believe what I have been taught it is very hard for me to get that a woman's hair should be uncut based on 1 Corinthians 11.
Can anyone help me reconcile myself with the UPC doctrine?

If you want to believe it, then why is it so hard? it's in there, isn't it?

Just shutup and obey. You don't want to be a witch do you?
Questioning is rebellion. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft.
Don't listen to those goofy libs who point out that Paul was dealing with a specific cultural issue of his day and that this whole thing was an example of how a local church / pastor is to handle things rather than an absolute injunction for women throughout the ages not to cut their hair.
Next I guess you will be starting a thread claiming that the Bible does not teach against makeup, pants, or jewelry.

If it was in there, she wouldn't have a hard time believing it, would she?

Really, my church is UPC. My wife does not cut her hair. However, I can read and study the bible and I don't get uncut out of it.
Now if you take the stance that this is not cultural and that it applies to christians of today the only thing I get is that longer hair might possibly be more please and respectful towards the husband. Am I reading this wrong?

Read it again, and you may see something different. Everytime I go over that passage I get something else.
