    Your post are so one sided they do not deserve a reply but I will say you are choosing to look at this all wrong. As long as you do you will not see the truth.

    Woman can't teach in the congregation

    It simply means the husband is the head of the family and will be held more accountable than the wife or the child. The family has a say and are dearly loved and respected but the final say is the fathers. Just like Eve was the first to disobey but Adam was held responsible, he should have...
