PTB, no, in verse 37 of ICor14 he declares it to be the "Lord's commandment" and:
I think you could argue that Paul needed an argument from authority in his attempt to get the Corinthians to listen to his council. The Corinthians questioned his apostleship which meant they didn't have much regard for his teaching. When Paul wrote to Timothy he stated that he did not permit a woman to teach.
1 Timothy 2:12
I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.
He couldn't use the same approach with the Corinthians because many of them didn't care what Paul thought. This may be why Paul referred to what the law stated in order to add some weight to his argument for women to remain silent.
1 Corinthians 14:34
Women are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says.
Paul didn't actually believe christians where under obligation anymore to keep the whole law. He didn't believe in circumcision so no one was yoked to the law. He expresses his thoughts in Galatians below. Also Jesus never silenced any woman. The first person he revealed his identity to was a woman who went off and told everyone.
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery. 2 Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you. 3 And I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law. 4 You have been severed from Christ, you who are seeking to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. 5 For we through the Spirit, by faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness. 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love. . . . 13 For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. 14 For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, " YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. "
If the bible is a product of the universe's intelligence heritage, do you think that is true of other holy writings too? They are just as an oddball read!
Yes it goes for every book ever written not just holy ones. The only way around this is to believe in free will. If you believe in free will then you aren't far from believing in some form of dualism or separation between mind and body.
