Headcovering And "Emerging" Worship

Something I have thought a lot about is the headcovering. I have struggled with it because I tend to think about my "exposure" to it which was the "anni-churches of Christ". There are some that still wear the headcovering and everything I had learned about them is just very oppressive to women. So I'm well aware that there are women who might be reading this and getting their backs up. I want to say up front that I understand and that, but also say that I'm not 100% sold on this either. Its something I want to investigate and discuss.
I also want to say up front, I'm not apart of an Emerging Church nor an Emerging group. Although sometimes I wonder if I'm headed to one of these groups in some way.
With that said I want to post the scripture and then share my thoughts. I'm not going to do any exegesis, that is not my strength, my strength is exhortation so I'm going to come from that end. Although I may ask Blake to post something here about headcovering if the need is there.

Head Coverings

1 Corn. 11:2-16

2Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you. 3But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. 5But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved. 6For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. 7For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8For man is not from woman, but woman from man. 9Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man. 10For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels. 11Nevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord. 12For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God. 13Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him? 15But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her[a] for a covering. 16But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.

Here is my thoughts up front. The headcovering to me is shown more out of symbolism. The one part of the scripture I cannot dismiss is the "because of the angels." I can't understand why we need to wear it because of them, I guess its a mystery. ;) Anyway, I wonder though the concept of the headcovering in a scared worship would be a wonderful thing to add. I don't know about it as a weekly thing, maybe, but I wonder if its an aceint practice we have dismissed because of hundreds of years of added meaning brought to it. I wonder if we stripped the concept of those years of meaning and what we would find. Maybe that is not possible, but when looking at the scripture and "dancing" with it I can see that this might be a neglected practice and it might even be something we need to consider.
Is this something we could embrace? Is this something we could see in the future? Any upfront thoughts so far? I know this isn't detailed. Its more to share just my thinking pattern right now, because I'm still mixed on this, but I'm wanting to hear other's thoughts as well. I will say this, I would rather this talk, which I hope happens, doesn't get into negative talk, I want this to push us to think outside of our box. I hope we can do that.
