Hogue is also a minister of Cottonwood Church of Christ, according to the outlet. He followed up in the email by quoting two New Testament verses that he said his congregation takes “literally.” The first, 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, says, “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.” The other passage, from 1 Timothy, states, “Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.” In the email obtained by The Dallas Morning News, Hogue wrote, "Not everyone may agree with me, but I can’t go against my conscience." The email was reportedly obtained through a records request and posted to Facebook, including to a page called Befuddled by the Clowns, a conservative blog dedicated to Wylie politics. )
