That's probably the most squabbled over passage in the Bible :)
I haven't seen all the theological arguments, but the most popular one is that the verse was added in later by scribes and not originally from Paul (something that would make the Bible inherently wrong, so those theologians probably won't fare well :)
The second argument (more plausible) is that Paul was referring to the Corinthians. If we look at chapter 14 as a whole, we see a lot of instructions for people not to speak out of turn. In other words, this passage is not sexist specifically, but instead trying to restore order to a church where everyone spoke whenever they wanted to, effectively drowning out everyone.
Some people believe this specific verse was connected to the historical discrimination of women - in that they were often uneducated, and thus had no idea what they were talking about when they asked things or preached in churches. Because it would take too much time to educate everyone at church, the husband was supposed to provide the education women didn't get at home.
Now having said all of that, I don't think any of these explanations are right. But don't shoot the messenger! ;)

The Bible says that the world will end
Some versions of the Bible say that Jesus was basically that kid from "It's a Good Life"

I can't remember where but I think I've seen a verse before saying that women who don't cover their hair should shave it

But is that really the end of the world, after Armageddon and judgement day comes or does the world get another free 2nd chance - just like the world got a free 2nd chance with Noah, maybe mankind could develop a space ark for survival after the fire and brimestone? Then after it freezes over from nuclear winter, earth could be terraformed and then eventually repopulated in a paradise, given the accelerated technology that was developed - but idk this is all speculation and I can't predict any of it.

When Sodom and Gomorrah was scheduled to be destroyed, they were destroyed completely.
In Noah's time, there was a promise that he and his family would be saved on a new earth.
In the end times, it again says "a new heaven and a new earth" - so it seems there will be paradise on earth for the years where the people are given a last chance for repentance who were too young to understand earlier on - and then after that the earth will be gone.
Correct me if I'm wrong but you can fact check me via Revelation 19-end :)

I feel like we should trust @ToTheEndOfTheWorld on anything relating to the end of the world
