Les Prouty at has started a couple of discussion threads on Reformation Faith Today. Les is a good guy (even if he does baptize infants!) so check them out and feel free to chime in. I certainly will!
Head Coverings: Should women wear them in church?
Head Coverings: Should women wear them in church? (part 2)

Here is my little standard answer.
What is the reason for the Headcovering?
The reason for wearing the covering, is because of the Fall. Eve usurped her role. From that point on, a womans Natural glory had to be covered when she communed with God. A women covers so she may take her God given place when she is before the throne praying, and when she is witnessing to others. The angels see this, even those that are fallen, and marvel at the obedience shown to God.
We are accustomed to the practice of men removing their headgear when they pray or teach, so why do Christians neglect the womens role of covering when she is praying or teaching?
