As I understand it, the women in Corinth sat in a different section than their husbands and were bad about shouting out to them for clarification, thus disrupting the service. What Paul’s saying here is to not disturb the service. Does (or did) this apply only to Corinthian woman? The church I go to is small and very interactive. Our pastor welcomes feedback during the service from all members, men and women. We can’t pick and choose which parts of the Bible to follow and which to ignore, but we also must look at in context and not just blindly follow. If your church welcomes the interaction, I seriously doubt God has a problem with it. If women (or men for that matter) are unwelcomingly disruptive, I would say keep quiet.
