what i intend to say is that if you read part of the pseudo-Pauline letters, you would get the idea that women were not to teach.
if you read 2 corinthians, it's quite apparent that the teachings of women, namely Chloe’s, save Paul's entire ministry. had she not done so...and the church in Corinth had failed, Paul wouldn't have been remembered as an Apostle...for someone to tack a message of women's silence on to Paul's name.
See what i mean? It's not that i don't read 2 timothy. but i don't treat some parts of it as scripture, because a more reliable source, namely Paul, indicates by word and experience that such a command is not in keeping with the work of the Holy Spirit.
