Just a simple question.
Within the JWs, if a woman needs to pray for the group because no baptized man is present, she has to cover her head as a mark of respect/submission (take your pick). It applies even if the male is a young child. My question is, does the rule still apply if there's a male baby present? How about one growing in the womb, who in the eyes of their god would still be a person?
trying to make sense of insanity... are you?
This thing with the head covering is nothing but a concocted notion of male superiority, it was introduced by the judeo christians to keep women in check.
The male has to be baptized. But, yes, it is pure silliness.
and if she is ugly she must cover her face too

Thanks. Must be my rusty memory - I thought I remembered it just being unbaptized publisher kids when I saw the cloth wearing scene.
A sister I knew became submissive to her sons once they were baptised, around the age of ten or eleven.
I asked her what this meant in day to day life, and she said that she would no longer repremand them (left that for dad) and that she saw them as spiritual leaders like her husband.
It is obvious! God - who is above - will have no idea it is a woman if she covers her head and so he will listen just so long as she puts on a deep voice. Great trick really!

To steal a quote - I think I just threw up a little.
My mom once I became unbaptised Pub had to do that when we studied at home too, stupid and helped me see it.
"trying to make sense of insanity... are you?" LOL! Exactly right!
