George Takai NAILS it. "Who Died?"

130. With all due respect

That is not about how it is "interpreted".
It is the unfailing, unquestionably "Word of God" when it suits someone's agenda and "interpreted in a cultural context" when it doesn't.

As I stated in my OP, that passage is "interpreted" by many Christian sects as literal. It is still an expected practice for Catholics in at least some cases(see images of veiled women meeting Pope), Anabaptists, Amish, Mennonites, some sects of Church of Christ, Eastern Orthodox, some Lutherans, some Methodist and so on.

Again, not judging, just pointing out that "love thy neighbor" is a lot easier to follow with no "interpretation" than women being told to be submissive and cover their heads...or women being inferior to men and remaining silent (1 Timothy 2:12)....or God killing hundreds of thousands of children (Exodus 12:29)
